Sestina!

Cheerleading
Go! Fight! Win!
I’m a cheer leader
From bows to toes.
We will stunt and tumble,
Please, don’t get distracted by the smile,
Sorry, but we can’t be beat. 

It’s not that you are easy to beat,
Our squad just strives to win.
We plaster on our smile
Because we know we are the leader.
The fans come to watch us tumble,
The judges score our pointed toes.

Points are deducted without pointed toes.
We know our jumps can’t be beat.
We practice frequently so we can tumble.
Everyone came to see us win.
They know we are the leader.
Fans came to see our smile.

Cheering without a smile,
Would be like ballerinas with no pointed toes.
We put the cheer in cheer leader.
Are you ready to be beat?
‘Cause we are ready to win!
Please hold while we tumble.

I bet you were surprised by our tumble
Pass. We can even smile
While we flip. That is why we win.
Perfection isn’t complicated if you have pointed toes.
As you know, we are not easy to beat.
We are the ultimate leader.

Do you want to be a cheer leader?
Can you tumble?
Are you tired of being beat?
Well, let me see your smile.
Be sure to have pointed toes.
Maybe then you’ll have the potential to win.

Now you know, to be a leader you have to smile.
When you tumble, point your toes.
Don’t think you will be beat, have confidence in your squad and you will win.
