| Someone who shoots within his bow, | Now he walks with steady pace, | ||
| Who looses clean his shaft, | In anticipation stored, | ||
| In sure belief we all know, | To the scoring at the face, | ||
| It will never be his last. | One nine, four more and a red! | ||
| His arrow so fast and smooth it flies, | Back then, he walks to the line, | ||
| On its graceful arcing path, | And takes his bow in hand, | ||
| 'Til it cannot be denied, | Nocking his arrow fine, | ||
| It commits its final act. | Once more to test his sand. | ||
| Three shafts and three more, | His heart and mind is freed, | ||
| Fly towards the target small, | His eye and arms are steady, | ||
| All aimed for the golden core, | The arrow echo's his need | ||
| Certain hit them all. | To Perfect His Archery. | May 1992. |
