Tribute To The Greatest-Muhammad Ali Poem by Tom Billsborough

He came, he saw, he conquered our hearts.
With his weaving magical boxing arts.
And when he was downed by Henry's great hammer
He picked himself up in his professional manner
And saw the bout off in the round he predicted.
From that day forward we became addicted
To this handsome fellow with his lively lips
His wicked smile and his printable quips
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee,
Poet in motion and in rhyme gloriously.
We'll never forget you this side of the pond
Your fame will remain for centuries beyond,
Rest now, our friend, a true gentleman,
So loyal to your soul, your race has been won!
