Agony And Ecstasy Co-Exist. Poem by Nabakishore Dash

Just as day comes after
night and the vice-versa,
agony and ecstasy
never co-exist
but follow each other
in the life of an individual.
But in the world cup at Qatar,
like any other tournaments,
one would find the
the simultaneous presence
of both in general(Of course
in different individuals.)

In the display of strength,
stamina, speed, style and skill
of the football teams,
some are good,
some are better.
When ball enters the net
ecstasy and agony rule
the field together.

Star players with team mates,
coach and onlookers jump and
look merrily at the sky.
The loosing teams strike the
ground with intense grief,
sobs and cry,
before saying Qatar
an anguished good bye.
Hope all teams,
next time, would give a better try.
