Written a long time ago. Extremely cheesy acrostic poem for my favourite athlete.


Rare it is for us to see, such

Order of excellence that comes from thee.

Greatness is something you always define,

Even when doubters suggest your decline.

Racing with history you strive for success,



Free flowing forehands and shots that impress.

Emulating legends and passing them too,

Doors of greatness are open to you.

Elegance, precision combine in one,

Records break, opponents run.

Employing new tactics everyday,

Roads to perfection, you’re on your way.



Youthful challenges and rivals alike,

Often you’ll wait, sometimes you’ll strike.

Understanding what shot to make,
'
Risking failure with the slightest mistake.

Easy victories to your delight,



Then five set battles worth the fight.

Happy and healthy, you win with grace,

Eloquent talking and a smile on your face.



Belief and determined you’ve been for so long,

Every time you’ve proved us wrong.

So now I hope there’s more to come, but

Thank you Roger for all you’ve done.
