a summary of the 2008 olympic games in such a few, detailed, vivid words...masterfully done.
Not strictly Haiku but very similar..... very well constructed poem this. Well done. Ruthy
nice poem which takes the breath away with its delicacy...mine ten
Sportivity for everthing else too......Olympic spirits shouldn't play every four years in sports only, my friend. But for ever in EVERTHING (yea, sounds like the impossible dream) . But no harm in dreaming and trying... Cheers. SUbroto
An ever lasting contribution to Olympics...wonderful...I like the last stanza
Interesting structure and choice of subject. Nicely put together.
think of the poor who were wiped of from shanghai for olimpics 2008.........
I love sport as well. I wanted to read what value you found in such. GW62
I did not see all of the Olympic opener, so I cannot appreciate all of your poem to the fullest. Not very sportive of me. I do like the ending: one world, one dream / five interlocking rings / blue, black, yellow, red, green / America, Africa, Australia, Asia, Europe This should appeal to everyone and is what the Olympics should be all about.
yes i agree quite incredible it was and your poem just does describe. good piece
AHMAD, THE OPENING CEREMONIES WERE BEYOND BELIEF. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE. ARE THEY THE SUPER-PEOPLE FROM OUTER SPACE? IT WAS SO EERIE AND MYSTICAL. THEIR PROFESSED CONSCIOUS CONNECTION TO NATURE/BEING IN THE PRESENT MAY EXPLAIN THEIR ABILITY TO PRODUCE MIND-BOGGLING PERFECTLY COORDINATED DISPLAYS. WOW AND DOUBLE WOW. THANK YOU FOR CAPTURING IT AND SHARING. CAROL HUGHES (RHODES)
