Once you've been eliminated,
taken out of active competition,
as the Boston Bruins have been,
one can take example on the hero
number four - Bobby Orr.
Cut down in his prime,
unable to play any longer
due to sustained injury,
he continued to inspire
in even more meaningful ways
than mere title glory
and trophy-collecting...!
And that makes him a true Bostonian -
even when, back then, he wasn't sure he was
he is the epitome of just that:
the most refined Bostonian prototype
one whose vision is not
limited to the mere present
but sees ahead and thinks
of greater concerns
for the collectivity.
Let's all be
like Bobby!
