SPORTS FOR PEACE

 

SPORTS FOR PEACE

-         Ganesh D Patil

                Sports and Games, create the Gems,

                Shining with sweat, ready for any threat

Blowing winds, Pulling the strings,

They fly with passion in their wings

                Like North Star, New generations they guide

                Like fierce war, every match they stride

                                                                                                Joy of hard work, they symbolize

                                                                                                Dignity of labour they imbibe

            Winners never quit, quitters never win

            This is the fact, their demeanor clean

                                                                                            National pride the champions boost

                                                                                            The waves of motivation, they enthuse

        Medals are made of sweat and blood

        When they are won, patriotism floods

                                                                                        Enemies on the border, soldiers detect

                                                                                        Liberty of the nation, they protect

        But Ladies and gentleman, games have a magic

        They avoid the bloodshed and happenings tragic

                                                                                   Fighting instincts in man, the games consume

                                                                                   The peaceful relationships, they resume

        Gaiety and gallantry generations to represent

        Players and soldiers shape legends to celebrate.
