The Winner The One Poem by Francis Duggan

A losing performance few do celebrate
But there is a huge difference between good and great
And though you may be a winner for to give you your due
Keep it in mind there is always one better than you
In the number one spot you are not going to stay
The best in the World will be beaten one day
The champion the one others do want to beat
There is little joy in being gallant in defeat
To the winner the big money the praise and the fame
The loser does become a forgotten name
Human life in some ways it is lived like a game
In so many aspects it is much the same
The winner the one by the masses admired
And the loser one never does look to for to be inspired.
