The Opportunity

Character shall make thee Destiny embraces me You feel like ingots of gold The Olympic torch to hold You are like a strong sea wind The heart of a lion dwells within You build great character and spirit in men A symphony of heroes, they know how to win The opportunity to cast thy nets, and capture the wind
