Cricket fan who still plays a bit and out of season writes a spot of poetry about the game, sad I know but it takes all sorts...Doesn't it ?
Here's a little sample, go ahead & fill your boots my friends...
A Perfect Holiday !
They say a relaxing vacation to a far off exotic location
will chase those blues away
Roasting daily in the sun, till you're baked and overdone,
for many is a worthwhile holiday!
Or perhaps a foreign cruise is even better news
to boost that flagging drive?
Indeed what could be finer onboard an ocean liner,
watching playful dolphins, leap and dive?
Yes, no doubt it is pleasure to recreate at leisure
on golden sands or becalming deep blue sea.
but what if I get burned, seasick and interned?
Alas, neither destination is for me!
So I've conceived a master plan, I'm renaissance man
to fill my summer days with blissful glee.
Guaranteed, cheerful fun, neath a temperate sun,
and all are very welcome to thejamboree!
Dressed in white glad rags, my kit in zipped up bags
I'm setting off to join a merry throng.
For my golden holiday ticket is spent playing cricket,
why don't you pack your case and come along?
