The Small Shall Be Great

The small shall be great and the great shall be small
Such wise words are surely worthy of recall
The praises of others big egos create
Though the humble champion is truly a great
The successful person not known for conceit
Is the type most people would be happy to meet
You often have heard success gone to his or her head
Of many too many such words can be said
It is hard to be humble and know of renown
When you are the one who is toast of the town
The celebrated who are humble to say the least rare
That the egotistical are many i am all too aware
The great champion humble in victory does not show conceit
And one who is graceful in the face of defeat.
