A poem on the Olympics?

A sonnet.

A minimalist poem. (It has to be under a certain number of words.)

A limerick.

A haiku.

A tongue twister.

A poem about summer.

End of Summer? Or start of Fall? Or beauty soon found in Winter? Or Spring ahead? Choice therein? Or pick your poison, anything goes? One chance per writer?

Personally, I like Fall, the time that is just ahead so filled with beauty that we should think about stopping to take a look and ponder before it arrives.
