Olympics Poem by Ray Feasey

The Olympics comparable to a special party
That lasts but a small durations of time
Obviously infinitely greater by scale
Yet similarity is there as joy bringing
With unity is a desired outcome - politic free

Funding so huge the organisation has to be right
Actual participants are relatively few when compared
To those who listen and view and look with smiles
Long days planning and logistics to solve
Just for a brief moment in time this resolve

Not a huge fan myself I admit
Yet that look on winner’s faces brings warmth in heart
Can we look and see nations as never before
As we are all invited to look through their door
We can if we remove our political eyes
And like a special party may be surprised!
