The tournament has started
Teams have been battling to the end
To see who has came to play
And who was just for pretend
When the game's start
Each team will have a chance
To get the team's goal
To advance in the big dance
One by one teams will fall
Only the strong will survive
And in the end
Only one will be alive
The favorites will squander
Upsets will be on the verge
When the road comes to an end
New stars will emerge
The mascots will dance
The players will sweat
But it’s all worth it
For a chance to cut down the net
There emerges the Cinderella stories
Fighting with all the strength they can muster
For a moment of glory
That’s why they call them bracket busters
When the tournament's over
You will see happiness and sadness
But that's the reason why
They call it March Madness

In this poem the tone is different because it is more of a lighter tone than the previous poem i read, I think that this tone is in some cases better but not always. The way the author wrote this poem was very advanced which I believe makes it a beautiful piece of writing.
