In a sports world of many highs and lows, athletes can take solace - a poem.
In the iconic sports world
Legends and athletes showcase
Their sportsmanship, humility, and values
Because of their talent
And work ethic.
They fulfill a lasting duty
By serving their community,
Advocating proper education
For youths and serving
As society’s role models.

But when people in high places
Engage in these worthy causes,
Lifting spirits and brightening lives
Every chance they encounter,
They become more committed
To their belief in positive,
Industrious, gainful living...

And their wise and loving families
Whom they continue to touch and inspire
Help to mold them
And shape their happy, productive lives
Of equal, uplifting status...
