Olympic athletes performed nude
(Spectators back then cheered the lewd)
The judges (we're told)
Used layers of gold
To honour the most well-hung dude...

With all the young athletes who hope
When they go to shower
That they'll have the power
To service all those who drop soap...

Who thought he was ever so sporty
Speed skating his game
The Olympics he'd aim
This time he'd defeat Klassen by forty....

An uncommonly spry basset hound
was annoyed when his ears swept the ground
But his spirits soared

Now he’d Doggie Olympics bound

The Olympic Medal
The Olympic Medal

To be given a gold medal
You have to win the gold medal
To take drugs and cheat
Is winning without merit
To dishonour the olympics
Is to dishonour Yourself....

The thorn-less roses were so angry
They refused to participate
In the garden Olympics
The brunt of their anger?
The accused daisies
The roses thought
They had stole
Their thorns.
True?...

Winners and Conquerors
To the winner, the medal
never full glory...
To the conqueror, the spoils

Premium Member The Very Latest Fuss Over Nothing
An Olympics Committee official said
          "Women talk too much in meetings"
       His resignation is being loudly demanded

       Were a woman to say the same about men
          ~ She might even be reprimanded...

Rejoice With Voice
Rejoice With Voice

Avoid new noise
Let art form become your voice
The you will rejoice.

Watching Olympics and how street art
is becoming the thing. I can remember
when it once was considered to be
graffiti. Poetry is another voice.

Olympics
A thorn in the flesh of the green, green grass
Between the line painted straight,
And sometimes bended.

The reek of the starters gun so black
The bulge of the rippling calves, sometimes slack,
As spikes rip through the blades
Of turf so lovingly tended....

Citius, altius, fortius,
Olympic motto
swifter, higher, stronger,
Latin you see
will it happen this year?
What about the pandemic?
Five rings
Five countries
Four begin with an A
Americas, Asia, Australia, Africa
Europe, odd man out
I hope it happens 
Without repercussions...

Sunflower
My sunflower
the tender breeze in the
streets of the field is your 
memory
and its sustains longer in your
flowering

The insects cream on your nectar
on you, their memory lingering, 
playing acrobatics on
your inner circles drawn like
tracks of an Olympics lane

Olympics theme song;
When I would have a hammer,
This was what we need.

Hope this will humor you and USA 
ends  up with a clean sweep.

Wonder who out there are
curling fans. I remember 
a Carling beer that probably
no longer exists....

Olympic Games
The Olympics is where the worlds best,
athletes get together,
for the ultimate test.
Sixteen days, where young and old,
watch the contestants striving,
to gain a medal of gold.
All races, colours, and creeds, together as one,
forgetting all national differences,
by participating, and having fun.
