Poetry
Games they play
By lit_lover
07 February 2007
There is a school near my college. kids in that school were playing basketball.
under the hot sun enthusisatically. i longed to be with thaem 


 
 
Golden Ball of fire
 Shining over their heads
Whoosh…whoosh….
The breeze blowing

Away their shawls
 yet they play basketball
with all their might


 
Watched over by their guide
Running, laughing, hugging
Let them play all their innings
B’cos this is the time they can play
 
 
The ground they play
Is neat and tidy
Lined with red and green
Rows of bushes of crotons
Let them play
 As if they have
Never played before
 And will never again
B’cos happy times
 Come to an end soon
 
 
 
Up in the space
Goes the big brown ball
Up above their heads

Into their goal hoop


It soars high as their aim
 And
Falls right into the goal
I wish them all luck
For the same to happen
 To them
To their
 aim and fame
 
 
I write all these
B’coz I can only
write the play
Watching from my class
Let them play with their clay

It's a nice poem, but you realy should do something about the font.
