Muntadhar Al-ZAIDI

He is famous world-over already

His throw was sharp and blady

Watched globally by Charlie and Cady

All had great fun - mummy and daddy

-

Heartily chuckles dear Eddie

Wild laughter comes from Freddie

Children are gleefully saying gee

It gives them a feeling heady

-

Iraqi shoe bust the id, ego and I

Lampooning alike by Jedi and Jehadi

For freedom, shoe holds vital key

It fits the baffoon and also the lady

-

Shoe pinpoints where lies the malady

This view, no one can ever say nigh

For this show, everyone was overready

Watched avidly, kids forgot to pee

-

The shoe landed in right quay

Now throwers say, "we are ready"

Art Gallery aimers are rock steady

For $ 1 throw, they forego teddy

-

From US occupation, Iraqis must get UDI*

Kids are showing high five and vee

They learnt a lesson but have we

Braveheart, you are Zed, you are Xi

-

Claps, cheers, celebrations - from Heidi to Yezdi

Hats off to you, Muntadhar Al-ZAIDI
