Old Timer Rhymer Poet Monorhyme

Tributes finally percolate through long white clouds

All about fall of Bazball and Stokes’s not Foulkes fate 

Well what about back slaps for Black Caps chaps mate

Pundits rude culprits pulpits spewed twee oh so Kiwi trait

Mighty minnows again punching well above their weight

Really a campaign even without Kane their all time great

And the penury of an injury spate they were still first rate


Doff our hats to Matt’s vat of stats could hang in the Tate

Darryl no right knight apparel didn’t unravel to bouncer bait

Simply from harder Kiwi larder did Archer Armada frustrate 


Nicholls with the don gone did come on and compensate

And the willow wizard Williamson he did commemorate

Way Tom & Conway with aplomb did play did elaborate  

Riff of Smith & Glenn dashing or Rachin flashing celebrate

Blundell loving gloving getting a bundle myths liberate


Cruel flak that Zak got for being middle pace cack did irritate

Not in the top pack but joined the attack and did penetrate 

Had a crack and got a stack so ace can each hack flagellate


Old school grace beat cool fool as Bazball rule did annihilate

Two of New Zealand’s famous ex pat sons they did eviscerate

Shroud in praise in proud land of long white cloud tributes percolate..
