The winner of the women’s match,*
An
absolute surprise,
Delighted
all the fans who know
How
hard she always tries.
In
forty-nine attempts, she never
Had
a Grand Slam win
And
posing with her trophy,
She
could not contain her grin.
The
runner-up, whom everyone,
(Which
did include herself)
Expected
to go home and add
That
trophy to her shelf,
Displayed,
for all to see,
A
rather nasty fit of pique.
She
smashed her racket on the ground
While
uttering a shriek.
She
said she had to let off steam
And
thus was cut some slack,
But
as a pro, she should have known
To
hold that anger back.
We’re
only human, that is true,
Though
athletes who compete
Should,
in public, hold their heads high
With
a win or in defeat.
*Australian
Open
