Delightful tribute. I haven't been watching the Olympics much, but did hear that there were a lot of gold medals given to the Americans last week. Glad your enjoying the games and all the best in the contest.

Dear author,
this is really an excellent read for this Friday morning. Your lines are beautifully written, wonderfully expressed. And the imagery is superb, particularly the 6th and 7th.

You have cleverly grabbed the reader's emotion and attention. Thank you for sharing; good luck in the voting booth. (tati, Feb. 26, 2010)

"Those Flying Men" is such a beautifully written poem! There is a nice rhythm to this and it's so graceful, just like the skiers. Like you said, they are poets of gravity!

Comment from Patricia Crandall
I relate to this poem as I am a skier (albeit downhill and X-C). This poem flows and draws on emotions - poets of gravity/white grace airborne - what vivid descriptions of skiers in the Olympics. It is one of my favorites. Good luck in the contest. Pat Crandall
