Someone posted this poem on another website that I belong to. I thought it was good. I also want to share a beautiful poem written by Kenner resident--and Saints fan--Don LeCocq. "Our Saints, Our City, Our Soul" Out of the fire And up from the flood A great team is born Made of guts, steel and blood Their history a low one No one can deny Their new rise a slow one But oh now so high This team that I speak of Is of black and gold And travels the gridiron So brave and so bold Their symbol is royalty We call Fleur de lis And proud New Orleanians Watch it with glee Come Deuce and come Reggie Come Drew and come Joe Come Marques and Terrance Now go beat the foe The course is set plainly There is clearly a goal Go show all the world A storm can't kill our soul To the men in black jerseys The tights and the cleats Know that we love you In wins and defeats And to you, Sean Payton The coach of our dreams Thank you from all of us Who give jumps, yells and screams You have given us purpose You have given us hope You have given us will And a reason to cope To all of the Saints Who reside in the Dome Thanks for making our city A proud place to call home
