The Olympics
Countries sent their athletes
to battle for the gold,
and those they sent to London
were striking to behold.
Teams marched into the stadium
with pride and dashing flair.
They may not know their future foe
but knew trials would be fair.
Each contender has prepared
for years to face this test,
and the contest will reveal
who is the world’s best.
I bow to you before you start…
it takes the brave to dare.
In my mind you deserve the gold
because you challenge there.
