The Olympics 2004
by James H. Lee Jr.

The Olympics is for champions who’ve trained to do their best,
And striven for perfection, so they may pass the test,
And thus receive Gold Medals for all their efforts here,
As Champion of Champions, for whom the crowds do cheer.

But if their act’s not perfect, the Silver or Bronze may be
The thing they’re apt to here receive, though less excitedly.
Then there are those who fail the test, and lose the victor’s crown
Reserved for those who do their best and NEVER do let down.

Their face reflects the sorrow and misery they feel,
Deep inside their heart and soul, which will NOT ever heal,
But it will keep reminding them of each mistake they made
While reaching for Olympic Gold, and oh the price they paid.

Life is like the Olympics, where those who want the “Gold,”
Must work hard to obtain it, though they be young or old,
And strive to reach perfection each day, their whole life through,
So they may win Celestial Gold, that’s worthy to pursue.

For nothing else will satisfy, nor bring eternal joy,
Except to gain Celestial Gold which time can ne’er destroy.
So reach for the Celestial Gold, and strive each day to be
A Champion of Champions, of true nobility,

Who knows what he must do here, and does it every day,
Who lives in perfect harmony with what the scriptures say,
And prays with faith undaunted, that he may one day be
A Champion of Champions for all eternity.
