Greatest Virture


Resistance is a woman's greatest virtue, or so it is said A gymnast must have said it, For a gymnast would surely know, That in this sport of ours Discouragement runs high, And at times the very best will see This virtue's passed by When hands are ripped and throbbing When every muscle's sore, Can a gymnast still have resistance To limp back in for more?
