Living Olympic dreams
To be best of the best
To be part of a team
You're on a medal quest

Going for the win
You're standing at the threshold
Let the Games begin
Do your best...might get the Gold

Time of testing near
Must be better than the rest
This could be the year
Hard work and sacrifice addressed

Just give it your all
Do the best you've ever done
Even if you fall
Just by being there, you won

Living Olympic dreams
To be best of the best
To be part of a team
You're on a medal quest

I know this is late; I wrote this during
the Salt Lake City Olympics. I love
to watch the Games, Winter and
Summer. It is amazing to learn the
history of sports and watch new
legends being born.

My brother and his wife live in SLC
and got to work at the Olympics--he
as a policeman, his wife as a
dispatcher. I would love to be part of
something like this...the memories!

ANY of the athletes from around
our globe are winners just by
being there. I congratulate you all.
