Gymnast Extraordinaire

Simone Biles
International superstar
Most worthy of a world-wide 
Ovation
Never to be topped for
Excellence in accomplishment

Because she’s a gymnast par excellence
Incredibly talented
Long may she receive
Every recognition
She so richly deserves

Lovely acrostic, I do them occasionally for "fun".

Age, race, size, and innumerable hardships did not prevent this young lady from daring to surpass the "Gold" standard! Her attitude and character certainly warrant accolades! Aloha! Rico

Thanks for the read and for joining me in giving merited praise to this young lady who has not allowed any "hardship" to prevent her from reaching the top. It's a joy to hear her speak, too.
