04/04/2021 - Poem a Day Compilation
Standing at the crease
Way before I should
Holding the fort for those
Who should have come before
Facing the oncoming attack
Tired from the day in the field
My fresh legs ready to run
But not getting ahead of myself
Defence is the name of the game
Making sure I don’t fall cheaply
Just making it through to the close of play
Playing the team game
I can only dream of innings
Like Gillespie in Bangladesh
Knocking out a double century
Before a lack of partners ended it all
For now I stand my ground
Staring down my foes
Protecting my wicket
With all that I have
I enjoyed this! Wish it was longer 😊
