United Through Adversity

I'm sat watching the Paralympics
With tears of awe in my eyes,
What an amazing sight,the battle they fight,
Every single day of their lives.

Everyone of them deserve a gold medal,
From the amputees to the ones who can't see.
The cruelty of life can't defeat them
They are all gold winners to me.

So thank you,god bless you, keep winning,
For standing up to the challenges you face.
Filling everyone with hope and inspiration,
For uniting the whole human race..
