Tom not just an amazing aquatic diver
Also an artistic knitter extraordinaire and survivor
He can loop with wool and needles
A superlative olympic sweater
Worthy beyond compare
To proudly have knit and to display
A lasting reminder of his incredible
Hard fought and earned diving fete
His pinnacle dream
To proudly stand on the Olympic podium
Representing Great Britain with the rest of the GB team
For all that this means
His most dearly held aspiration an Olympic Medal he now holds
Which his father would have been endlessly supremely proud
Of his son's diving achievements
Being acknowledged in the most prestigious
Sporting event worldwide
Tom will be happy he has been astute enough
To learn to knit
Expressing his artistic creativity
Alongside his athletic prowess
To bind and design
A beautiful white cardigan
Bearing emblems of Japanese writing and Olympic success
So beautifully crafted and knitted
Whilst under competitive duress
Symbolising all his worked for endeavours
Expressed in a powerful white design
That all of GB team would be honoured to wear
Created by one of their team
Bringing home to their country
Honour by achieving success
In all of life's aspirational dreams
Tom they are proud of you
The way you knit and bound together
You and the GB Team2020 Olympians
Will now be our forever
Admired and our beloved national treasures
