Rewards

 There are those that stand out, those that shine 

Their every step resounds with accolades

Heaven itself eager rains blessings on them

Then there are those that light up momentarily

Fireworks in the sky, gone in twinkling of eye

They too draw admiration, a look of wonder

For that one moment lived in limelight

What of  also rans, those that stretched to their limit

May be carried on doggedly till the last breath

Those that battle on each day, head bent, shoulders taut 

What reward for their courage, what recognition

Awaits them save empty stands as they reach finish line

Bedraggled,  drained, yet soaring in spirit

Perseverance their medal, won in silence unnoticed.
