The Olympic Games

How lucky I, to have the time To watch Olympics all the day. I have not written one small rhyme For fear I’ll miss some of the play. To watch Olympics all the day Means I don’t get my housework done For fear I’ll miss some of the play. In Rio town its rain or sun. I don’t get my housework done My favorite has lost the race. In Rio town its rain or sun. There’s disappointment on his face. My favorite has lost the race I haven’t written one small rhyme. There’s disappointment on his face. How lucky I, to have the time.
