They called him a weak man
almost everything
but he surprised the
election pundits
above all things
BJP and its deathly sting
to all the retorts he took a swing
the electorate home again
the hero bring
a David hitting Goliath
with a sling
the strong man
now nursing a broken wing
Jai Ho Jai Ho
Cong I sing
a resurging wave
now the in thing
Verily truly
Singh is King
law order governance
development
on the upswing
politics a murky
unpredictable
wrestling ring
heroes became zeroes
new surprises spring
a mother and her son
the real thing
holding the heart of India
with a silken string
prayers of the public
for the young scion
Prime Ministership
and a Wedding Ring
