Notes About The Poem

Grand Prix Malaysia

 

Sometimes is about the race. Sometimes is about race, and sometimes is about the human race. Beauty is not the winner, it’s the one who admires the voyage, and cherishes the memories and friendships.

 

The Race

He for sure has the faster of wheels
Not so fair, not at all!
With my wounded heels
The race is on, the excitement shared


Who will win? Who will lose?
The race is round and round and round again
The circuit closed, yet the race abounds
The crowd roars, as the send in the clowns


Now if he wins, it means tiss I who lost
Should I win, then is he God chose
To share the clouds and rainbows there
Whilst the loser, will shed a tear in holy despair

So there it is the race is on
Who will live, and live on and on
We each carry our holy grail
Each wishing this life long race

Will be as slow as turtle’s verses snails
Let us commune and drink our ale

Racing is not one of my better subjects nor the pretty girls, but the race is on who's going to win and who is going to lose and yes Lord will choose

The race is a closed circuit that will reveal who is made up of what; whatever the outcome, I'll drink to the journey itself:) Amitiés
