JPPT1974's Weekend Thoughts 2/12-2/14/2010:

[JPPT1974]

This weekend begins two weeks of the Winter Games.
In Vancouver, British Columbia.
As there will be athletes all over
The world competing medals.
But also where the world stops
Whatever they are doing.
To come in peace and harmony.
Along with good sportsmanship.

 

[JPPT1974]

We see the athletes, in particular the youth of the world.
As role models and that they
Want to imitate those that.
Do the sports. Unlike other sports, these athletes become famous for like.
Fifteen minutes once every four years.
And then disappear!
There is more to that than just being on the Olympic stage you see.

 

[JPPT1974]

They take days, weeks, long hours,
And months, even years.
To train the way they do.
Also they have to pay for
Their own sponsorships and earn
The right through hard, hard work.
In order to get on their respected Olympic teams.
