Hey there! It seems like it’s been a while since I’ve posted, doesn’t it? It looks like the WordPress app on my phone hasn’t actually been posting the things I’ve been trying to post for the past few weeks. So, be prepared for a stream of new (um… old) posts!
This poem is from a basketball tournament I attended two weeks ago, but it still applies.
Sweat drips down my neck
I inhale deeply, my eyes forward
My feet and sides ache
My legs feel like jelly
But for a moment
As the girl bounces the ball at the free throw line
I appreciate the beauty
Of the sport I call my own
I’m so lucky to play
This vibrant, energetic, exhausting, exhilarating game
Called basketball
