Poem
It’s been 3 years since the low blow of nadirs As we said hooroo to you..goodbye to our top guy Still feeling...reeling from the pain Of all the polished veneers of careers Which is the best palimpsests of Test contests..conquests The class...VIP pass..no glass ceiling Why..has to be the insane arcane Shane gravy train You know they’re in the hall of fame..like Elvis When they just get called by their first name Palpable fears cricket will never ever Be quite the same game again Cricketing Gods above showered their love.. on an upstart.. Who didn’t just play his part but resurrected The respected but sadly neglected.. leg spin art Vision of befuddling precision & derision lingers The dawn of Warne Muddling aplomb of his first ball against a Pom Fingers flipped…it dipped..ripped Nipped..skipped..clipped off stump Leggy bomb….under the pump Down in the dump chump Plump Gatting pipped Standing sentry for the outstanding ball of the century As Shane twirled & quite simply changed the world of batting Gandalf's celestial staff...walks the walk...talks the talk On some extra terrestrial path And at tother end..you're having a laugh..where When there's then the zen Of his old friend Glenn McGrath Warnie’s masterplan of..flair…elan and despair Devious...mischievous...had plenty of previous Alright unfair trite slights about hair implants..highlights Off the square delights…did revel with rare On another level.. seedier devil may care flights Done like a kipper by a ripper Wannabe chipper skipper's flipper again One of the game’s greatest readers & media feeder Should've been.. hallowed.. not fallowed leader Memories never wane of how Shane did forever entertain A whizz doing the biz with such fizz Legendary larrikin of sin & spin So let's ordain the Champagne Campaign & Reign of Shane!
