first lost sights forget stretch shell
left rattle rest old hole feathers
left rattle rest old hole feathers
Sportsmen are a special breed
First and foremost interest in particular
sports are not lost on them to excel
They set their sights to be the best and
forget little distractions or disappointments
They stretch themselves to their utmost
pushing themselves out of the shell
They are left with no alternatives but to persevere
That should rattle the rest of the field
Old rivals holed up in their comfort zone
are not of concern
A true champion will go beyond in his
bid for excellence with the designated feathers
in his cap to announce his stature at all times
