Good Bye Ceylon Cricket and Tony (Graig)

Good Bye Tony (Graig)


Demise of Tony in December 2012
 
We have to say 
Good Bye to Tony,
Who had been our 
Sporting Ambassador
And I have made a resolution,
In his name,
No fire crackers 
For the New Year 2013.

Why is that anyway?

Tony Graig, 
The best of our Cricketing friends
Is no more,   
He was the closest friend of ours,
The next closest of our friends
Is the canine species,
The Paraya Dog Type
With no permanent residence
Who chase the politicians
Of all shades of colour,
Are terrified of the thunder,
That announces 
The arrival of these political thugs
At our doorsteps

By the way,
Tony should now 
Join the angles
Who play cricket 
EVERY DAY
Except
On Sundays! 

Well what do they do
On Sundays? 

They watch Cricket,
If Ceylon
Is not playing,
 
Sorry-Lanka Cricket,
To be precise

PS.
I thank God for sparing 
Tony watching any more of
Agonizing Ceylonese Cricket.
