The one who is hailed by the masses will never be a hero to you <br />Your hero is a quiet achiever to his dedications he's true <br />An honest and a hard working person and one of high integrity <br />You have placed him on a pedestal to you there's none greater than he. <br /> <br />Your hero is a well known local and in his work he takes great pride <br />He is admired and respected by many but he'll never be known far and wide <br />He's one who leads by good example one to help you out if he could <br />And for the local community he is one who has done so much good. <br /> <br />He is such a down to earth person and none more hard working than he <br />One who derives much satisfaction in each sporting local victory <br />A generous and a likeable fellow and a familiar face of the Town <br />He's happy to be a well known local and he does not yearn for World-wide renown. <br /> <br />I do like your sort of a hero a person that you do know well <br />Of any huge business adventures he does not have stories to tell <br />When you say you'll follow in his footsteps you are walking on solid ground <br />Why look up to a World renowned hero when there's a local hero to be found.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/your-hero-is-a-well-known-local/
