This is a poem about a man who brought some Inspiration back into my life.

Have you ever met someone who made you feel wanted?
Made you feel special, makes you want to succeed.
Whenever your around them your heats filled with joy
No job is to hard or to big, just to please.
This man makes me feel that, I grin ear to ear.
He's always so happy, I know that it counts.
You want to try hard for him, to be really good.
In gymnastics, this coach does that, for everyone
We all try so hard, give it our all, 110 percent.
You never give up, try, try and try.
All for one person, this special coach.
Whenever your downhearted, he lifts spirits up,
You know you can do it and all because him.
Everyone is included, the smallest to the tallest,
Nothing matters when you know you can succeed.
I just want to thank him for giveing me back,
My love of gymnastics when everythings bad.

*Please give you honest thoughts and replies to this poem, it may not be brilliant or anywhere near good but I just want to show that one person can make a difference! Thank You!

Yes.. i have met many people like that. You succeeding in your gymnasics reflects upon him as a coach, and makes HIM feel special and wanted in return. Sounds like a nice guy.. keep up the good work!!

Love is God. Love is war. Love is what your life is for.

Wow, sounds like a dream coach! You got lucky with a good one.

This poem was well written. It's a very sweet tribute to, obviously, a very sweet person. I must say, though... until the middle of the poem, when the coach is mentioned, I thought you were talking about a boyfriend. Unexpected turns are good times, though

Nice work, I really enjoyed this!

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the most frustrated people in the world are those who know they're stupid, but keep trying anyway.

Ah it would be great to have a coach like that. You're very fortunate to have someone that loves sport to such an extent.

Thanks for the read.
