THE CONTEST The contest lasts for moments Though the training's taken years
It wasn’t the winning alone that Was worth the work and all the tears
The applause will be forgotten The prize misplaced
But the long hard hours of practice Will never be a waste
For in trying to win You build a skill
You learn the winning Depends on will
You never grow by how much you win You only grow by how much you put in
So any new challenge You’ve just begun
Put forth your best And you’ve already won.
