Oylmpic Medals
OYLMPIC MEDALS-
Olympus’s memory told with a long told history of games,
A long list of contests and all the winners names.
Gigantic proportions held at the equator each fourth year,
Winners to leave with a sum and a medal to hold dear.
World politics split the Olympic Games into sections,
Communist threat spread, and it was decided on segregation.
All voted it was best just to stay here at home,
Then it was split, China stayed there we went to Rome.
Our version of the Olympics were held separately in different towns,
Across many nations with secrecy it was bound.
