Islanders
The New York Islanders is a great team,
made of professional hockey players.
Becoming a member is a life’s dream,
but requires lots of clothing layers.
The team was founded in seventy-two,
in the lovely city of Uniondale.
Their colors are white and orange and blue.
worn by Sparky the Dragon with his tail.
Fans of the team are a crazy large crowd,
who fill the Nassau Coliseum each game.
Their fun cheers can be heard extremely loud,
Yelling and screaming each player’s surname!
If not an Islander, then a Ranger,
Keep that a secret or you're in danger.
