Rosary of Sumo
( A short tribute)
An amusement born in the Edo period,
became the profession:-
Of many or few...
Perilious & hazardous yet
Cheered and enjoyed as gendai budo - martial art .....
And performed by stout and strong ...
But who are
Sweet and soft as momos at heart
apple cheeked and moon faced .....
With skin as soft as mallows
A neatly fashioned top knot bun around ...
And beautiful beady keen eyes,
Round and mound with the world around them ,
Adorned with mawashi( belt )
Vibrant and spinning with resilience
Disciplined & dedicated .....
