Herbert Nehrlich - Running George

Big George, enthusiast in Sports,
a budding athlete, well of sorts,
placed in his running shoes small springs
it was as if he'd grown some wings.
He bounced in leaps and lept in bounds,
completed fourteen extra rounds.
This shows a man can hardly lose
with little gadgets in his shoes.
