Reasons I Love the Olympics



The fluid grace of flight and height.
The fall across the finish line.
The audacity of youth that forgets the spotlight
and throws down something new that’s never been tried.
The way the gold medalist fumbles for words to the national anthem.
The cheers of the crowd for the skier who comes in last.
