It really is an awesome sight to see
Just what these athletes can achieve
The amount of training it takes
To compete and risk such high stakes
The tremendous drive and motivation
The commitment to resist distracting temptation
A single-minded purpose they serve
And a sense of fair play they observe
With quality mentors such as these
Did you ever wonder what we might achieve
If we were to live our lives through thick and thin
With values such as these in an attempt to win
And the risk and bravery in order to gain
A positive reputation and a good name
To such a high standard do they aspire
That they will risk losing in spite of their desire
For qualities such as these look no further then the D's
Discipline
Dedication
Determination
Dependability
Desire
So maybe we need to be athletes so to speak
And when we are down and out we need to seek
A five D approach to deal with the situation
And remember we do represent our own summation
