What a boy!
Only eight years old,
Both legs amputated
After being abused as a baby,
Yet he came through,
His foster parents saved him,
And he saved himself
And created a new world,
A world of climbing and heroism.
He reached his first summit
The summit of Orrest Head,
A fell overlooking the Lake District.
So many people were there
Cheering him on
As he climbed into his life
That will now be so wonderful
And lead him to the great heights,
The great heights to come,
To come in his life.
Well done Tony,
Tony Hudgell.
