Of Life's Losers Poem by Francis Duggan

Of life's losers i do feel happy to sing
The people who to hope for the better does cling
They are born as the children of the lesser gods
And just to survive have to battle the odds
It is those known as winners that others of wish to know
Like the alfa roosters of the fowl shed of their success they can crow
But my admiration is for the poor of the poor side of the town
Who do not give up on life though financially down
Many believe that between success and failure everyone has a choice
But to life's destiny i am one who lends my voice
Many people in life of success do not stand a chance
They are robbed of a successful future by their birth circumstance
I can only admire those of the lesser gods
Who though financially down do keep on battling the odds.
