Poems

I dashed for the ball and slashed all in my way
The goal pulled me in as the ball flew at it
The ball flew as fast as lightning while I defended the goal
CRASH! The ball hit my chest and ran away
The sun started to morph into a giant light bulb
I was crying my eyes out after the ball hit me
Come on, come on, come on shouted everyone as I went to score a goal
We scored super goals during the match.

The ball bounced off the floor
And hit me in the face
I slipped and slammed
My knee on the ground
It was so hot
I was seeing double
My red vest
Flapping in the wind
Like a flag, floating furiously
As the lions roared
I am defending my goal
Like a wolf protecting its cubs!

I stand in front of the road of
never ending water.
I get ready to dive in to the
Arctic Ocean.

A wall of knives breaking in
to the precious chamber of energy.
I was pushed in.

Adrenaline rushing through me.
I’ve heard what happens to
people who aren’t in the lead.
BANG!
I am in a trance of racing.

The tight ball of rubber pulled
over my head.
As I swim, the pool’s water
sews my throat with pain.

We play the underwater run
for fun.
Our flippers become our controllers.
We become our own characters.
Coaches offer power-up cheers
as the components raise their levels…

I succeed.

The beam is a lollipop stick,
BANG! The floor routines tumble,
I had to climb with the song’s time.
I felt pain but I pulled through ,
I went flip flip flip,
The agony agonised upon me.
The foam pit raised as I jumped in,
I leaped like a elegant swan hovering upon the water.

The ball was an orange.
Boom! The ball went into the goal.
The ball went bounce like a cheetah going pounce.
I was really hurt getting hit by the ball.
The players went run, run, run up the field.
The punishing players took a shot to glory.
The ball ran into the goal.
The ball hit my wrist like a wrecking ball.

My netball is a bomb
Bounce the ball up the court
The ball goes bounce like a cat goes pounce
I was freezing cold waiting for my turn
The ball went bounce bounce bounce
I hear a sound
The bouncing ball boinged
The ball jumped into
my hand like a video game
The ball hit my nose like a strike of lightning

Bruised my shin, that’s nothing.
Bent my finger, oh stop.
Fractured my hand oh that’s it .
Crunched like a crisp it went.
Punished by an overhead kick.

Off I go to the hospital
Why do I never have good luck
Oh why oh why?

My leotard was cold as ice.
One of the bars creaked.
I went on the bar it felt like air.
I was cold as I got on the beam.
I bounced and bounced until I went on to the trampoline.
I went on the bar and I jumped on the beam.
The beam was as straight as a ruler.

There I was a volcano of sudden proudness.
Tweet! went the whistle as the tournament began.
I served and hit the shuttle cock into the air and it curved.
It was a game of excitement and sorrow.
My team was the Falcons.
Falcons, Falcons, Falcons went the crowd.
My team accumulate the super score as I serve the next high hit.
There was the score 10:10 shouting at me.
Tweet! There was the end whistle
I looked at the score.10:11
My team won like lions in a battle.

My feet are power packs.
SPLASH! I dived into the water.
I swim and win.
I felt happy as I completed the race.
My arms ached as I pulled along.
The swimming pool was surrounded by water.
My body was like a flash in the water.
I swam like a shark hunting for its prey.
