Catch the pigskin
Another one of my poems where I practiced my tetrameter.

Look at the pigskin soaring high
Spiraling, tumbling, falling
Who is going to catch the ball?
The Little one, the fat, the tall

Searching througout the light blue sky
Beads of sweat dripping down my face
Brunette hair sticking to my skin
Those distracted boys will not win


An exhilarated feeling
Will I catch it or will I not?
Rapidly pumping, my heart beat
Slowly rising, my body heat

For now I have the brown football
Ha! They thought a girl can't play
Oh! No! Here I come running past
Those dumbstruck boys think they're fast


Hurry up guys, come chase me down
It is only a game of tag
Darting past like shooting arrows
Left to right, I dodge the SPARROWS

Can you hear me laugh at your team?
Your wings of flight not very swift
I am the LION, jungle king
Hear me roar while you sweetly sing

I'm the girl who beat your team
You can't hurt or tackle me
Did you see the touchdown I made?
Behind those trees, where there is shade

Jaws slightly drop, eyes wide open
Deer in the headlights, they stand
Listen to my team loudly cheer
I'm the girl without a fear

Of being trampled and tackled
For I will catch the pigskin
Again and again all the same
Until we play another game
