A sea of red
All brought together
To share in their passion

They walked the streets
An excitement palpable
In the air

They were heading to their home ground
They would surely win today

As they walked
All as one
Another colour
From the opposite direction
started to emerge

The colours were coming closer
Red and blue converging

They each sang
Their songs
They cheered and they jeered
They were coming
closer to the ground

Their teams would
Be going into battle
The battle site already overflowing

The noise was deafening
Each side situated
at opposite ends.

Just like a chess game
The pawns
In place
ready to defend
Ready to go into attack

It was nearly time
The teams filed out
Blue and red gladiators
Walking proudly onto the pitch

Thank you 😊

What a nice poem. I could feel the excitement, see and hear the teams and the crowd. I am left wondering who won...red or blue?
