A Duke Jeyaraj poem on the World Cup Final 2011 at Mumbai between India- Sri Lanka on 2 April 2011
As Dilshan brilliantly caught & bowled the well-set Kohli, Dhoni could have stayed back in the safety of the Indian hut,
And sent into the middle, the in-form Yuvraj Singh, to bear the pressure's brunt,
But Dhoni walked into the middle, voluntarily, with a steely determination to keep India in the275-run hunt,
His trademark strokes were thankfully back after a long time - the shovel power drive, the sizzling helicopter cut,
To let go of his golden opportunity to win it for India - he was no senseless nut,
And along with gutsy Gambhir, he gave a fitting reply in response to Sri Lanka's first inning run glut,
His body was tiring, his nose was 'running', his back was breaking, but he kept batting in what was an amazing display of gut,
In the end, when he hit that six, he ensured, in India's camp, the World Cup, for the next four years, would stay put!
As the whole world was caught in the web of sin and was going to eternal hell, Jesus could have chosen stay back in the comfort of Heaven's hut,
Worked out an alternative plan or sent-in Angels to save humanity and bear the horrible consequences of sin's brunt,
But Jesus himself voluntarily walked toward Jerusalem to be crucified for your sake, in a daring display of his loving gut,
He sweated blood, his back was ripped open, a crown of thorns was pressed down his his head, but on the Cross route he stayed put,
All for your sake, all so that you can be forgiven, and if you refuse this amazing love of his, I am afraid you have to only be a senseless nut!
