OLYMPIC GLORY

They came from every corner

Of an ever-changing world,

Diverse in dress and culture,

Speaking unfamiliar tongue,

Each with their special talent,

Eager to put on display

The exuberance and energy

Inherent to the young

Who's' lofty goals exceed the limits

Of our grand imaginations.

Records are no obstacles

When sights are set on high.

Success is bought with passion,

Perseverance, perspiration

And the fortitude to carry on,

Never asking why.

Each and every one of them

A unique song to sing.

Don Quixote's quest pales

With the telling of their story.

They all seek dragoned windmills

To topple in their dreams;

Chasing immortality

To find Olympic glory.
