Suddenly without warning

Clock countdown in slo-mo

Across the virgin ice top

Cerebral fires an image

Spirit rising warmer

In hot it begins its glow

Against all odds of winning

A wish suddenly exposed

Tears make up the feelings

Purer than hard snow

Eruptions take us over

Hands fly up out of control

Screams flood our bodies

Shakes take over bones

A miracle “it’s a miracle”

We call it USA at home

Invisible and inviolable

Past ego and past logical

The hero’s coming home

A win that never should

A belief it never would

Somehow all together

A few knew they could

The miracle of 84’
