Victory Is All The Sweeter

Victory is all the sweeter when it is earned in the honest way
The former Olympic Champion was suspended for the taking of performance enhancing drugs today
A hero of his Country for him there was many a loud hooray
Stripped of his Olympic Gold for cheating this is his price to pay
Victory is all the sweeter when in the honest way it is won
What often is achieved in ways dishonest often times later becomes undone
What goes around always comes around as the wise are known to say
The silver medalist has been honored with the gold he was cheated out of today
Even when you lose with honor people your name will want to recall
But when you do win without cheating this is the best feeling of all
The celebrated Olympic Champion today is one in disgrace
In sports as in life for cheating there can never be a place
Victory is all the sweeter when it is earned in the honest way
Just before you think of cheating remember it may well not pay.
