One Ball That is All

One ball that brought us all together,
One ball that had an impact on history forever,
One game that changed us all for good,
The pitch upon which we stood,
That net made for scoring goals,
That ball at our feet which we control,
Those celebrations that show our colours,
The way we remember others,
One Ball That Is All
A young boy given a ball,
One moment where to rule them all,
The pitch a whole new world for the roaming ants,
Throughout the game a never-ending pant,
The ball a never forgotten memory,
I will never forget this extraordinary treasury,
This ball creates memories with others to share,
To get through life without a care,
One Ball That Is All
The ball the wind beside me wherever I go,
As it goes on torn and worn like a withered crow,
This ball is part of me one of limbs,
The chance to play in England my chances dim,
One ball a chance to get somewhere,
This one ball that makes my life rare.
