In another place, whilst I eat my tea
Our brave athletes are going for victory
flying round tracks and fields of all kind
focused on goals in body and mind
Prepared for the task – with targets in hand
strategies made – and races planned
Zeus watches on as the events unfold
as Britain goes hunting for Bronze, Silver or Gold
And as world meets in Rio to follow the race
The athletes are focused on the first, second, third place
So as flame it burns – give the athletes a cheer
as medals are won and old records – disappear.
