Celebrating Football Victory

The joy of winning a cup Starts with lifting the thing up, Acknowledging fans’ wild cheers And shedding forced but real tears… The joy of grabbing a cup Skirting round: down to up, With the Sports Minister sup, Everything try plus hiccup, Before Minister’s Teacup… The Press tell ‘I hadn’t fears:’ Your team knew how to foes pierce, All your kicked and lobbed balls ‘Spears’ Only victory sounds hears… The joy of picking a cup: Football cup, Basketball Cup - Climbing shoulders of teammates, In hand sparkling wine from crates… Ceaseless acting of the Great’ Before the lens cleaning sweat.
