Chelsea man,
Football Poet,
One-man-band,
helping us
to understand
the Game we love
is much more grand
than money,
television, and
is best when played
on grass, or sand,
impromptu, ref-less,
on demand,
by children born
in every land.
So, raise your glass,
extend your hand,
and give a shout out
from the stand
to those who make
football expand
and answer to
this one command:
Let children’s smiles
remain our brand . . .
. . .like Crispin Thomas:
Chelsea man,
Football Poet,
One-man-band.
