Olympics: A Poem of Inspiration in Haiku

Rio Olympics,

Is so full of statistics.

Surrealistic.

Legitimacy,

There, the true human spirit.

Its participants.

Hope for the future,

Where all to compete, embrace.

Our best Human Race.

Well, it's certainly been a topic of conversation - and of TV watching for the last couple of weeks. Enjoyed your poems.
