Cauda Poems

Anne Dickins

Anne Dickins

Anne was an endurance cyclist, 
But in 2011 she ruptured her back, 
Which meant that she did enlist, 
Cauda equine syndrome, her yack. 

A physiotherapist cool by profession, 
And a Games Maker in London 2012,
Anne was offered good instruction, 
In canoeing by Colin Radmore, wealth. 

Although she suffered seasickness, 
Anne took motion sickness lessons, 
Normally for fighter pilots skill, duress, 
Which meant she overcame sessions. 

In 2014 at the ICF Worlds in Moscow, 
She won the gold for the 200 metres, 
And in 2015, Milan, a silver did follow, 
Then 2016 at the Worlds, gold litres.

She was born on the 20th February,
In 1967, so she has much experience;
She won the gold in Rio’s hot country,
In the KL3 class of her convergence.
