OLYMPIC GAMES
J AN ISTARA Ackerman 7-19-2012
Above the Olympic theater
the eyes of the world are focused.
With a longing to unite
in joyful goodwill,
the representatives of humanity
parade around the circle of Nations,
orbiting the center as worldly stars.
Each arrayed in their nation’s colors
carrying a flags of their home land.
A spectacular ceremonial celebration
culminates in the presentation
of the Olympic torch of LIGHT.
It brings forth Light to rekindle
the world’s flame of excellence.
Eyes swell with tears as
individualized empowerment
touches each open heart.
