[bodytext] => A Loyal Spectator By Ashraf Gohar Goreja With a heavy, meek and humble heart, He kept sitting after the games were over, Shouting, cheering,howling Heckling crowd were gone But this, loyal spectator was left alone He continuously heard strident, blasting blares In his silently ringing, deafen ears Tooting cheers coming from near and far distance Couldn't make his lonesome world, happy and cheerful He didn't repeat blissful slogans for his eyes were tearful Now, this delightful event was concluded And his pensive world had turned around To its congenial and depressive phase Making him sad again on this crowed earth What virtues he would have brought with his birth? Empty cans, glass bottles and half burnt cigarettes Left over food, drinks, unwrapped candies With a thankful contented heart, he lived On this planet of marvelous glories and great success He was merely a beaten bishop, on grand board of chess.
