Tribute to Sachin Tendulkar

Father's poetic tribute to the greatest player...Sachin Tendulkar, poem for Sachin.

Intensity, concentration, spontaneity
Moods and tensions and form ...
Rhythm and movement and composition
And flashes of imagination and talent ...
When the strokes go across
To the boundary
Of all the things, that string of
Uncertainty hanging all the time
Making moment of every movement -
A creative moment
And a challenge
What else can all this be
If not a lyric on the playground?
Hence this vocabulary
Rushing up to me
As I sit down, Dear Sachin,
To describe your game.
