Game Point
September 24, 2015
Firmly, I grip the ball.
My body is tense
with stress.
My arm
full of power,
I pound the ball with force.
I glance at the score,
one more.
I focus on
the whistle blow.
I toss the ball,
directly in front of me.
I study my hand,
as it contacts the ball.
I touch the ball,
against my firm hand.
I send it flying
over the net.
Deep
into the court.
An ace.
***
The air explodes with noise.
The crowd starts to clap.
Everyone begins to cheer.
My team gathers.
A circle of glory.
We rejoice with
happiness.
