An Ode To Virat

As a cricket lover would like to share a poem written by me about Virat Kholi, India's cricket captain.

Patriotism personified by the Indian tricolor on his blue coat

As a captain, he commands respect without any fiat

Ownership is his mantra and never wastes time finding a scapegoat

Commitment is an integral trait manifested by his overflowing sweat

Failures are a part of his success story but gracious in defeat

A timely pat on the back for his team members makes him a suave diplomat

Cricket fans?will love to lose sleep and food since his batting is a sublime treat

Batting is his forte which bowlers consider as a?potential threat

Seldom does he lose his composure, but a behaves likes a bureaucrat

His demeanor despite the?heat?is always very neat

Once on the ground, his mood is one of?mortal combat

When he is in the middle the team is like a smooth sailing boat

Like a leopard on the prowl, his focus on the field is always upbeat

When he gets dismissed many of us miss a heartbeat

Records and accolades?accomplished by him are no mean feat

No wonder we can expect him to add many more feathers to his hat

Most of us would pray and wish his stellar actions repeat
