EVERYONE WINS : EVERYONE WINS Being a winner
is quite easy to face,
But it takes a big person
to accept loss with grace.
To stand and shake hands
after losing a game,
And watch as another
gets glory and fame,
Takes honor and courage—
so stand straight and tall,
And know in your heart
that you gave it your all.
You’ll earn much respect—
‘cause losing’s no sin,
Showing good sportsmanship
lets everyone win.
