Saturday evening fiasco
----------------------------
It was a Saturday evening
Nothing about it was demeaning
In fact, it looked perfect for a game of Scrabble
Little did I know that in store for me was a squabble
I have nobody but myself to blame
'cause I tried to grab undue fame
We commenced the game with 2 teams
Rules were stated so that cheating is nobody's means
Bhavan and Thom were a pair
That put Me and Ananth to despair
Their first double-word score was Cozy
which, for us, was not all that rosy
Coffees were ordered
Our hopes were soon murdered
They made scores that they could flaunt
Still all I did was meaningless taunt
The game seemed to go on forever
Our team never got better
It was only once that we overtook their score
but soon we were left wanting for more
Triumph was theirs
All we had was tears
This time it was Thom's turn
to make my heart burn
All he said was to jot down my emotions
And here I am simply executing his suggestion
After all, the winner takes it all!!

Don't worry ammu... you will surely beat this formidable pair one day... Anyways, its a well written poem...
Tis in defeat we need to be magnanimous
And not gloat in or be preposterous
Lest we forget its all but a game of text
And it so easily could be our turn next
But for what it is worth till then
It feels nice rubbing it in : )
wow!! that was a really good poem :-)
Oh.. here it is.. sorry!! I read the recent post first! :)
