RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
Paris Olympics
The heart of the western world is Paris
It cannot be denied
The greatness of London and Berlin
Is known far and wide
Amsterdam and Prague
Have many on their side
But that Paris is the very heart
Cannot be denied
The host of the Olympics
As gracious as can be
The majesty of the Eiffel Tower
The wealth of Champs Elysees
The Palace of the Invalids
The glory of the Seine
The pyramid of the Louvre
The famed Musee d’Orsay
There is no place like Paris
On this or any day
The Olympics brings its grandeur
Paris gives its charm
Combined it is a spectacle
The most glorious of stars
To win the gold in Paris
The silver or the bronze
Would bring a rare panache
Perhaps a poem or a song
