Old is still gold in any language. The world needs
heroes. They only improve with age as they
become a legend in their own time. An
amazing metaphorical write. Praise
for your dramatic pen.
Kind wishes,
Sandra

As one for whom cricket is but a mystery, your poem shows me the passion of the devotee. I know folk from Sri Lanka and India 'live' their cricket (even more perhaps than those from Britain where the game originated or Australia, who will forever strive to defeat the Poms) and this poem certainly expresses the intensity of a devotion that has an almost religious significance. In this poem, your language is extravagant, your structure is abrasive, the intensity of your passion is palpable and your veneration for your hero knows no bounds. Another wonderful read full of surprises. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Hi,
Well of course this title caught my eye... (you know why) .
Your poetry is so... artistic, I don't (of course) get any of the clues to understanding the message, put you sure paint with lovely colors.

Great writing here. Great imagery of a talented heart. I am not into the English? version of our American baseball. Flat bats and all. But I can see the well versed stanzas of a very poetic and artistic talent at hand, the power behind this master piece! God bless us all-MJG.

I am not into cricket, yet my husband tries to explain it all to me. What I am into is your fabulous imagination creating imagery with your own unique style. I can see you have dedicated this work towards this sportsman and those who know of him, are having a 'ball of a time' reading your work!

Yes; Shashen...Attapattu was a classic player...more of the test cricket class like Dravid, Kallis, Chanderpaul and Fleming...age was telling on his fielding alright, but as you said there was a couple of years good cricket left in him at the time he was sadly ignored...good tribute to the diplomatic soft spoken classic cricketer...thanks...10
