he's got the sun burning in his eyes
and he can feel the heavy summer air
is bearing down, the pressure
from the crowds;
the questions in their heart
who will be the one?
he's got the answer
(they all do perhaps),
there will be
no way to stop him
in this race
to be the first
cause he will run
for his father's pride
his mother's joy
his flag to wrap
around his shoulders
when he's done
the big hearted Masai.
