Plumb In Front Poem by Jameel Ahmed Ansari

Plumb in Front

Time to hit the stands again
Let’s gear up for the biggest event
Ladies n gentlemen
World cup's back here again

Four years after Windies debacle
The stage is set here again
It’s time to break the shackles
It’s time to lift the cup once again

For this cricket frenzy nation
For the billions of cricket crazy fans
It’s time to launch the celebration
Coz I think we have chance.

For the golden boy of Indian Cricket
For the millions of fans who follow him
For the only feat that has eluded him
It’s perfect time to achieve his dream.

The star studded batting line ups
The monster hitters n the giant killers
The spinners the slingers, the lanky pace men,
All are ready to set the stadiums ablaze

The nail biting finishes, n comprehensive wins
The shocking defeats, n crushing wins
The lucky teams n the D/L victims
Hold your breath coz, you gona be awestruck again.

It’s time to bid adieu, to the daily soap operas
Time to say goodbye, to the ‘not so’ reality shows
Get ready pull up your socks,
It’s time to catch the cricket fever again

NB: Dedicated to all the cricket lovers and my ASP team members. Sam you’ll love this poem..
