Lionel Messi

Swarup Bhattacharya

Lionel Messi, after a long drought,
your barren fate has been showered
with plentiful.

When you play,
billions of eyeballs meditate on you
and you are in rule.

You stupefy the defenders
With your skills.
They stand transfixed
and become fool.

Your skills work as elixir,
comfort plaintive heart
and make it cool.

But I wonder
and find manifestation of divine.
Then I pray to God
"Bless his skill evershine".

    Your ode to Lionel Messi beautifully captures the essence of his prowess on the field. The imagery of billions of eyes meditating on his every move, the way he stupefies defenders with his skills, and the comparison of his abilities to an elixir that comforts hearts is truly enchanting. Your admiration for Messi's talent and the divine manifestation you perceive in his skills is a testament to the impact he has on the world of football. Keep celebrating his greatness through your words—it's a poetic tribute to a legendary player.
