The Iron Man Of Koroit

He has lived for many Seasons of years eleven with three score and ten
The Iron Man of Koroit is a man among men
One who does not seek attention his ego from public view hidden away
But actions speaks louder than words as the wise are known to say

He has a heart pacemaker and cancer he did survive
But of dying he has no notion he feels very much alive
Than many half of his age far fitter believe this if you may
That a fifty kilometre cycle to him is not a hard day

For octogenarian Australians he is one who carries the flag
But Rob Stewart is a down to earth bloke you never hear him brag
Than him i am years younger but he would street me in a race
Not one near his age in Koroit with him who could hope to keep pace

He once invited me to go for a cycle with him but of course i turned him down
How could i hope to keep up with the Iron Man of Koroit Town
At the thought of cycling fifty kilometres i even does feel tired
Even by such a mighty man as he is to extend myself i cannot feel inspired

For you sporting greats of Koroit here's a man for you to admire
Go for a pedal with Rob Stewart for hard training he will quench your desire
And i can guarantee you that you will not beat him home
For he is to Koroit Town what Caesar was to Rome.
