The Coach by Poet deVine
The crowd is gone, the cheers have stopped,
and the equipment is stored away.
The team is standing on the field
because the coach is leaving today.
He led them through the hardest times,
and was proud the times they won.
But now the seasons over and
his time as coach is done.
The team will go on without him,
will perform at the usual pace.
But though another coach comes in,
therell be a void in this place.
Today when the field is emptied
and the team has met the test,
The coach can feel certain that
he will be remembered as simply the best.
and the equipment is stored away.
The team is standing on the field
because the coach is leaving today.

and was proud the times they won.
But now the seasons over and

will perform at the usual pace.
But though another coach comes in,
therell be a void in this place.
Today when the field is emptied
and the team has met the test,
The coach can feel certain that
he will be remembered as simply the best.

This poem was written for the CEO of the company I work for. He was a big ASU football fan and when he retired, I wrote this for him.
