Success cannot be achieved without a
fall
Champions however rise and continue to
give it all
We remember our struggle and moments
of pleasure
Of memories which brought us tears and
love we treasure
Along the way you have seen me on a
knee
Kiss the weights and kick them angrily
Always I walk off the steps prepared
for a rematch
With the clean and jerk and that
stubborn fucking snatch
Another week has passed and my team is
called upon
To test their heroic bravery and chance
to be the paragon
You should come visit us sometime and
be welcomed with a friendly greeting
You'll love our muscles and passion we
have for competing
Soon our efforts will be shown on a live broadcast
My heart is pounding to win and cock at
full mast
This afternoon I lift for one who is to
me very special
She knows who she is for she stands out
amongst several
Before I go I will give you a hint on
how to be the best
Always be happy and maybe a little bit
obsessed
To be the champion you must never dare
lose
Push it hard, be fearless, then catch a
quick snooze
Father your son displays the blessings
you have given him once more
Lets stand the test and search the
heart as I explore
Its time to relax and let the mind
detach
Come on Jon, Spence, Kevin, Rob, and
Lindsay ... let us have our fucking rematch!

Donny;
ReplyDeleteHad I read your poem before I saw you lift, I would have had pity for Spence, Jon, Kevin and Lindsay. Caleb too!
You lifted great. 3 PRs in one day is difficult to top. I'm really looking forward to training tomorrow. See you then.
Jim Davis
You have such a way with words...and the bar. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your poetry. You did great today Donny. Both as an athlete and a trainer.
