American Football Poem

Born To Win

R.G. Graham

When you were in your crib tiny and small,
And everyone was looking at you one and all,
They smiled with pride and said again and again,
This child is special and was born to win!

Grandma and grandpa and mom and dad too,
Brother and sister were all looking at you,
They just couldn't help getting a grin,
And saying this child is special and was born to win!

And now you're getting older probably past two,
And they keep saying there's nothing you can't do
Because you're kind to all and obey your mom and dad,
You pick up your toys and go early to bed.

You're kind to your neighbors and all your friends too,
You share with them things that are special to you,
And children are so happy that you are their friend,
They know in their heart you were born to win.

So when you go to school and see children that are sad.
Pat them on the back and say it's not so bad.
Because I like you, would you please be my friend,
Because you and I are special, we were born to win!
