What is the message of the poem?


The eight other runners pulled up on their heels
The ones who had trained for so long to complete
one by one they all turned around and went back to help him
And brought the young boy to his feet.

The hundred-yard dash now reduced to a walk
And a banner above that said (Special Olympics)

And a standing ovation and nine beaming faces
Said more than these words ever will.
