Crown

It’s that thing atop your curly hair that makes you feel so proud

You can smile big, wave long and be loud

You deserved to win and have a swarming crowd

Some people think you rigged the system

“How dare she take a bow!”

When in actuality you had to work

Twice as hard

Sweating from both brows

It came from within

The drive and determination

That pushed you across the finish line

To announce your proclamation
