Another of my scribblings



BasketBall
My passion is Basket Ball
I wait for my friends to call
In the grounds, my team toil and moil
amidst our opponents, trying to foil.
We try to fake
and take the ball through the Zone.
They try to steal
and block the ball from seeing the basket.
Time speeds up in the clock
and whistle blows at a foul.
One by One,
Two goes in.
It was a foul inside the "D".
Half Quarter has come
and it is time for a small tea.
New plans in mind
Defence mode made man to man
by our opponents.
Aggression escalates
It is a 2-point game to them.
Time in the clock read forty seconds
Speed is the name of the game.
Ball in our hands
We pass and pass
Till we find an open man to score
Shot clock shows five seconds left.
Tension mounts and
I find the ball in my hands
Somebody shouts something
and I feel hot all over
Without any thought
A three pointer....
PLUM.
Hurray! Hurray!
I am lifted off the floor
and Cries all over
singing in chorus
We Won! We Won!

My Recent Poem


I am not very much into writing poems....But I do love to write if something really fascinates me. I havent been particular about any rhyming, but in the future, I 'll try to make it a part of my poem writing.

Nature (Part 1)
The sun has risen above the horizon
Causing the flowers to bloom in this lovely occasion
Their pleasant aroma invades the morning hours
Spreading message to bees and butterflies.
Beautiful and flambouyant their wings are
Blending among the humming bees, not far.
This sight gives me an aire of delight,
happiness and tranquility that I cannot describe ..
This is just one aspect of nature
That god has bestowed upon us.
Redundant destruction reveals the immature
mindset of the human beings
who are solely to lose.
