You stung.
You floated.
Made many boxer rich.
And if any denied it.
Many knowledge experts can admit it.

You inspired many in various ways.
Either through confidence to believe.
Either through the joy of being in your company.

You uplifted some spiritually.
Even if some didn't believe what you believe?
But faith works wonders.
And that you was to millions.
Whether through your fights in Manila.
Or visits to Africa.

God grants angels upon this earth to do his will.
And through your life many found great thrills.

Oh, there's no need for sadness.
Cause gladness were your joy.
Each of us holds power in others lives.

And you held strength in many.
A son of the south that fought against discrimination.
So it's so strange to look around now and see changes from then.
You have seen it.

Ali, so things are wriiten to be known.
And you was the inspiration of this poem.
