The Pains of Being Second

Being Second Barely reckoned First gets credit Rides on merit Sometimes forgets spirit He who has lost Pays a huge cost Physical and mental frost Needs time to defrost The first rules the day Second hardly gets a say Loosing being in the fray Takes the playing spirit away Winning matters whenever you play.   Penmancy gets a small share of every purchase you make through these links, and every little helps us continue bringing you the reads you love!
