Sonnet: India’s Olympic Gold in 108 years!

From fourth, he forged ahead to win the gold!

He never knew, he would create history;

His golden finger was precise and bold;

His mind was clear, full of tranquility!

This was Abhinav Bindra at his best,

At Beijing’s Air-Rifle shooting this year

–An example for Indians for gold-quest;

The Chandigarh hero is now too dear!

Bespectacled lad in early twenties;

His thrill in life was indescribable;

His calm, composure won him gold with ease;

His final shot was perfectly able.

India’s hunt for gold-medals is now on;

Bindra heralded new Olympic dawn!

Fondly dedicated to the Indian Olympic hero
