The Immortal Ayrton Senna
The first of May
Marks that dreadful day
That Ayrton Senna
Passed away
One of the greatest
We may ever have seen
Precise and methodical
He made winning routine
So focused was he
That he’d be entranced
With severe tunnel vision
His car flew while it danced
His battles with Prost
Pushed them to new limits
Ahead of the pack
By not seconds but minutes
A rain master of sorts,
Remember Monaco?
In heavy rains
He put on a show
Brazil ’91
With only 6th gear
A wet victory
For his home fans to cheer
It’s been 18 years
Since the legend’s death
In the hearts of his fans
Despite his last breath
A moment of silence
For the F1 great
As he looks down on us
From behind Heaven’s gate
