Roger, Over and Out

Federer’s retiring,

He finally announced.

He hasn’t played in ages, but

The newshounds, they all pounced.

 

A classy player, through and through,

He ranks up with the best,

To which his many titles

And his sponsors will attest.

 

It wasn’t a surprise for fans

And yet the message sent

Is that, in tennis circles,

There is something to lament.
