In Touch : Sports Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


 

Rugby at its best puts the world to the test ,
and the memory of it all will never die .

Be it Japan versus Scotland or USA against France,
there's always a chance for a try .

We've all gone up and over with World Cup Rugby .
The game that has got us all in boots and all .

But as close as it may come with the line outs
or in the scrum the Wallabies end up with that ball .

You'll hear Kiwis that giggle ,
see the goosesteps wriggle and tackles that could break a man in two .

The Irish will be thumping
their special something
that can turn a field of green to black and blue .

Yet its not the uniqueness of one player alone,
but the spirit of a teams unity .

That overwhelms the opposition to grab the prize ,
in this passionate game called Rugby .
