Eight Wickets (Sports Poem)
eight wickets
eight wickets
he did so well score
on the pitch at Bangalore
he spun the ball
he spun the ball*
in the first session of play
over after over toiling away
his efforts were fab
his efforts were fab
bamboozling the batsmen
with a seaming flight of hem
not since Warne
not since Warne
had such a display been seen
on the oval's twenty two yard sheen
a magic spell
a magic spell
Lyon's spinning technique
*was truly magnifique
