Nicely done. Clear picture of aerial skiers even without the wonderful artwork.

I see no errors.

Congrats on the win and keep writing

Timelt entry, Amada. Not only pertinent, but also
a winner. Congratulations. I like the way you associated
the sport to poetry---in motion. I haven't watched much of the Olympics, but I do like to watch the acrobatic ski jumps, etc.

    Thank you boberto. I have been glued to the Olympics. My father loved all sort of sports. He passed away many years ago. I felt compelled to wathc this event, I feel close to his spirit. If he were alive, we would be right there in Vancouver!

    I just came back from there a month ago. We spent almost a month over on Vancouver Island, in Victoria. Wife is Canadian and has family there.
    I also love sports, hard for me to watch/listen to TV.

Poets of gravity captures the essences of these ski events very well. Your poem flowed very well and I enjoyed the imagery that your words evoked. Well done!

A perfecrt description.
