Dear Nole...



Dear Nole,
The world's seein’ you win 
Day-after-day,
Months on end,
Excellence personified
You’ve come to be...
Made choices
Classified priorities
Started to mature and scintillate...
Come a long way...
Swooning girls at your feet,
Guys inspired by your theatrics
There were Roger and Rafa afore,
Your name – the only chord that strikes now...
In the roulette known as tennis,
You are winning hands down
No need for splitting hairs there...
Yet, as this mire shrouds you
Skips a beat,
My heart does...
Jostling thoughts
Overwhelm me
Records within reach
Yet afar
Time to be kinder
Luck to go easy
I wish...
Not so you can trump,
Immortalised victories
Just so,
That you can fan out
Your valour and glories...
