Why Should I Always Fly with a Tennis Ball?

 

The ad is served like a tennis ball

Across the net and just out of bounds

A tennis ball wouldn’t hog the armrest

But I’d much rather travel with a friend

 

You, perhaps, if you bring along a book

Or maybe a crossword, but not a video game

We could look up from the page and ask

The attendant for a pot of tea for two

                  

Traveling with you would be ever so grand          

Because

A tennis ball could never hold your hand
