THE UNSUNG


THE UNSUNG


His Excellency, laud with loud ovation
Cost of victory simplified by great oration
But six feet down town lay the heroes that fought
The Unsung

The Artiste, performed far beyond expectation
Fans and figures doubled beyond computation
But down stage sat the obscure song writer
The Unsung

The Company toped the chart by nominations
Bully shares soared and blossomed beyond duration
But down sized stood her indebted work-force
The Unsung

Soon a new song will be sung
I dare you to lend your voice and sing
Not for stars but for their host the sky
For all who labour and linger in the soil of toil
But have remained with the clouds of
The Unsung
