cross country poem

winning run!!!!!!!!

You have to run,you know you must

Coming first you dearly lust.

You change your thoughts,you think it a sin

For anybody else to win.

You think your speedy as a shark

Although only at the starting mark.

The race drives you mad,to lose you think—is absolutely  very bad.

But to be true,in actual fact

Cheating to win would have you sacked.

That’s why its good to use fair play,and always say

``I can do it’’`` I can win.’’

And when you lose do not pout,just feel free and run about.

Run,run,run and bathe yourself in the winning sun.
