Wrestling The Wall

by Gary R Priester   Jan 31, 2013


To toe the line upon this shrine
To face my foe "The Wall" this time

He's fierce and strong but so am I
Lifetimes I've spent some wonder why

Preparing body, skills, and mind
With drills repeated thousands of times

My team stands with me both big and small
They've honed my skills and stood so tall

To cheer me on with hope and call
They've got my back win lose or fall

My Coach is stern his will is mine
He's passed his knowledge from another time

So now the challenge; I'll give it all
To be the best
I face "The Wall!"

...Inspired by my eldest son and the many times he has faced The Wall!...
