Ode to the Champions

I was surfing the web when I came across the
following poem and wanted to share it:

Who are these people-
These doers of deeds,
These dreamers of dreams,
Who make us believe?

Who are these people
Who still win the day-
When the odds are against them
And strength fades away?

These people are champions,
For they never give in,
A heart beats within them
That is destined to win.

They follow their dreams
Though the journey seems far,
From the top of a mountain
They reach out to a star.

And when they have touched it-
When their journey is done-
They give to us hope
From the victories they've won.

So here's to the champions-
To all their great deeds,
They follow their hearts
And become winners indeed.
