Soccer

SA 2007 (Seattle)



I warmed up to play soccer

Training with my friends

Working hard in tryouts to make it  

 at Washington middle school  

the coaches are their

coach Zack and coach Eric  

  

we went to the game  

first game of the season  

half of my teammates came  

my dad and my brother were their  

  

the rest of the team came

we started the game

and we played and we played but

my dad and my brother left

in the middle of the match  

because they got something to do  

  

 something happened to me

I fell on the grass  

Turf burn on my hand

Then I go check my arm and my legs   

To see if am hurt  

All my friends came  

  

  

And ran to my aid

 I got bandage from my coach

I continued to play  

For the rest of the day  

Like I was never hurt  

We lost the game so sadly

But I still scored one goal   

  

 The game ended so early  

And my coach gave me a ride  

To my school where he piked me up  

Took metro bus to get home  

The place where I  belong   

About this poem
