THE RED, WHITE & BLUE

Watching the Olympics 
Watching on TV
Getting so excited
It means so much to me.

Simone is pure perfection
On the floor or parallel bars
She and her team…. amazing
Each one of them are stars. 

Ledecky is a favorite
A torpedo in the pool
She makes it look so easy
She started out at school.

Soccer, so exciting
Love to watch the players run
Every competition 
Every single game they’ve won. 

Love watching teams play Volleyball 
On the sand or on the court
They try so hard, they give their all
They play with so much heart.

Not everyone wins a medal
Still we celebrate each one
For all their dedication
For all that they have done.

Whether silver, bronze or gold
While standing on the podium
We all feel the pride that’s felt
By each and every one of them.
