[hometext] => if you have to ask, don't bother :))
[bodytext] => There is nothing more pleasing Than defeat in their eyes And the vision of our boys Standing nine feet bloody high. Bruised and battered warriors Brothers one and all Weary, yet respondent To the mighty maroon call. I saw it happen there in front Like an ancient biblical tale A series win so strong Yet somehow oh so frail. With a tear in my eye I put these words to pen Mere words can never thank Those mighty maroon men. They have now joined the legends Of Mal, Geno and the king Who when they wore the jumper Could do any bloody thing. From boys to men overnight In a glorious Sydney stopper We bow our heads and give a thought To our mate “the grasshopper.” When we think of all that’s past In the last 26 turbulent years The fights, the guts, the glory The happiness and tears. We know it could never have been, These brothers one and all Without the brilliant concept Of State of Origin Football!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
