Personally


I think that the Disabled Athletes
Should be as an "appetizer"
To the delicious excitement
Of the Olympics
And I'm sorry to say
Not as an afterthought
Some of these Athletes
These disabled Athletes
Are so beautiful
I myself was unwell
After the Olympics
But I still Hope
That we Remember their names as well!

Congratulations to Sophie Pascoe for getting that Gold for her Grandfather

Thank you to Deb for agreeing with my sentiments. I think your example of flame throwing beautiful indeed. I hope your work sells really well. Of course Christchurch seems to be a Cultured City so I hope that is the case. Love Barbara
