My contribution to Sunday Scribblings - #99 Passion
Twittering moment,
excitement at its peak
hands folded in unison,
offering prayers
adrenalin pumped up
heartbeat racing fast,
Irresistible temptation
sun peeps out of the dark clouds
not moving a micro inch,
follow every minuscule action
wide open lids with full focus
eyeballs gazing hard and hopeful
a sixer zooms past
way beyond the stands,
Jumping in passion
victorious day for cricket

Oh yes - that's passion! A passion for cricket well written :)
I also wrote a poem for this Sunday's Scribblings :)
I'll admit to not understanding the first thing about cricket. But baseball - that's a different matter. Years ago when the San Francisco Giants wan the pennant (and heard on radio - that's how long ago it was) My mother, the weekly cleaning woman and I joined arms and danced around the living room.
Good take on the prompt, and slyly misleading to begin with.
perfect passion here :)
Somehow it made me sad. Is it what we want in sports?
chequered shadows
The slap of leather on willow. Green grass and warm beer under a sunny sky.
Ah, the passion of cricket, indeed.
Lol, great slant!
i can feel your passion for the game....
I too must admit I do not know the game, but I know all too well the passionate love for a sport - for me it is baseball, followed closely by football, but then basketball is not far behind!
So who won the match ... well done, I get it, Oi, Oi, Oi!!!
As a sports nut, I really enjoyed and understood this poem!
I also no nothing about cricket. But I still loved the poem.
I lived in England for 6 years and developed an appreciation for Cricket, particularly the International Matches. A lot of passion. And unlike soccer, no hooligans. Enjoyed the poem.
