Good 3/5/3 syllable count
good use of enjambment to keep thoughts flowing from line to line
I'm with you - I've been enthralled since I was a little kid - I don't have one athletic bone in my klutzy body, but I sure do appreciate those who do :-) Brooke

Simply said, conveying that sweet ecstasy of watching the winter sports. I am a soccer and tennis man myself but be enthralled by the games. Well done.

Thoughtfully composed and very factual.
A well chosen image and complementary words.
Plenty of disappointments at the Winter Olympics I fear.

I love those rings too and we watch quite a bit of the Olympics. The Netherlands were doing very well last night in the medal count.

    Thanks Ine. Yes, they really have those Alpine events. 3 gold, 2 silver, 3 bronze. Impressive.

Hi, Treischel,
"The Games" is an excellent 3-5-3 poem making a coherent statement within that format. It flows well.

I wanted to watch some of the games. But errhhh, well... bob sledding wasn't something that interested me. Snowboarding... I like. Maybe I'll find a schedule of the games somewhere. Enjoy the games!

This one made me smile - a childlike declaration, complacent and confident!


I'm enthralled .. too!

I'm not the sportiest person in the world, though I admire those who are.
