PARALYMPIANS
They should not be seen as disabled
When they compete
A Paralympian should be viewed
Simply as an Athlete
IF YOU’VE LEARNED NOTHING IN LIFE
If you’ve learned nothing in life
Take this piece of advice from me
Remember this if nothing else,
Your character is your destiny
DISABILITY SPORT
They may well be considered
In life to have a Vulnerability
But where sport is concerned
They have no such disability
So calling it “Disability Sport”
Couldn’t be more misleading
When the limits they are given
They are constantly exceeding
Don’t look at them as disabled
But as sportsmen and women
Because in the arena of sport its
As athletes you should define them
THE FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS
Candlemas Day,
The festival of lights
40 days after Epiphany
Is celebrated to mark
The Presentation of Christ
In The Temple,
OLYMPIANS V PARALYMPIANS
The Olympics is the pinnacle
For any man and woman
But I believe that an Olympian
Is actually merely Human
Whereas a Paralympian
Is quite obviously Super Human
SAINT DAVID
Saint David was born in the 5th century
A scion of the royal house of Ceredigion,
And founded a Celtic Monastic order,
At Glyn Rhosyn, the Vale of Roses,
Which became an important Christian shrine
Where St David's Cathedral stands today
