Olympic Flames Blaze Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Olympic flames blaze, a symbol of might,
With passion and pride, it ignites the fire,
The world stands in awe, at this wondrous sight,
As dreams and hopes, soar ever higher.

From ancient Greece, the tradition it came,
To light the way, for athletes of old,
With strength and grace, they played the game,
Their spirits burning, pure and bold.

In modern times, it still holds true,
The flame still burns, with glorious grace
A beacon of hope, for me and you,
To unite us all, in one global race.
Oh Olympic flames, forever ablaze,
Inspiring us, to reach our prime,
With every leap, and every phase,
We strive for greatness, in record time.

So let the torch, be passed through generations,
And may the flame, forever illuminate our nations,
With fiery passion, the flames ignite,
A symbol of strength, a timeless sight.

From ancient Greece to modern day
The Olympic torch, it leads the way,
The journey begins, from hand to hand,
Through cities and towns, across the land,
In every step, the flame burns bright.

A symbol of unity, a beacon of light,
Through mountains and valleys, it carries on,
A sacred flame, from dusk till dawn,
A legacy of honor, a legacy of fame.

The Olympic flame, it blazes with no shame,
Through storms and winds, it never dies,
For it carries the dreams, of those who try,
To reach the pinnacle, of athletic grace.

The flame ignites, the human race,
In the arena, the flames are ablaze,
A grand spectacle, it never fades,
From track to pool, from field to court.

The Olympic spirit, it will never abort,
Through triumph and defeat, the flame endures,
A symbol of hope, a symbol pure,
For in its flickers, we see our own.

The strength to rise, and never be alone,
So let the Olympic flames blaze,
In every heart, in every race,
For it is not just a mere fire,
But a symbol of humanity's desire

To reach for greatness, to strive for more,
The Olympic flame, forevermore,
A triumph of mind, body, and soul,
Guiding us towards our ultimate goal.
