Brilliant Orange
This is my first stab at being a football poet. I'll give you all the link, if and when it gets published on a footy poets forum. Feel free to add a positive comment or hurl verbal tomatos if you so wish, and continue to watch this space...
Brilliant Orange
Schizophrenic they may be
Two world cup final losses,
Leaving the nation all at sea
‘Total Voetbal’, switching positions with ease
Flowing passes, stubborn possession, the killer pass, all a breeze
Wilkes, Cruyff, Gullit to name but three
Stars for the future include Van Persie
The future is orange, the future is bright
The spirit of Rembrandt and Van Gogh is truly alight
