Aim For the Top
Verily, I say,
It is a beauteous thing to
Reach the pinnacle of your sport,
Garner praise from your peers
In nations near and far yet,
None were able to match your
Intense accuracy and focus for which you
Attained the cherished goal.
That thing all strive for
Has been laid
Round your neck and
As you watch your flag ascend, you
Smile at what you have achieved,
Hand at your heart,
Emotions well up inside as you
Remember all those who stood behind you.
