Value of Winning Ways

One can forgive and be lenient,
Further a goal and aim high -
Struggle at times, be obedient,
Strongly believe in each try.

But knowing performance is driven -
Develop control and save face;
Timing does seem like a given,
And certainly appears in this place!

The wonder of playing the tourneys
Is how much the sports world can mean,
To players engaged in these journeys -
Turning red lights into green!
