Poem: A trip on board the baby jet

Sat, 1 Jan 2011 Source: Shaban Barani Alpha

Who African Soccer fans via the BBC endorsed

He, the continental mafia from ‘emselves divorced

Under Hayatou, one of many dodgy calls by CAF

Ain’t any surprise, but another reason to laugh

Trending a chequered but good career inventory

He’s so far held on to survive a harsh trajectory

Maybe by not letting go of a great quality

Discipline, as a standard at local club, Liberty

Prone as players are, beset by setback of injuries

Braved the odds in Italian topflight with Udinese

The French test may have been real stern

As always, made the best of his time at Rennes

Then, the record signing switch to Sunderland

So far, looking like a justified price in Fun land

A target and subject of sharp and vile critique

Almost always after, exuding a form fantastique

Never really slumping as low as to the mark, Zero

But time without number, risen to become hero

Choooboi! Just count to the number three

And has sent 1000s and more on an thrill spree

It’s a free flight, so come on board and get set

As it promises to be a blast on the baby jet

He has, he can and he will, cuz he is the man

STOP, LOOK, LISTEN, he is Asamoah Gyan
