Hockey

 

 

It’s gametime

Anxious-excited-nervous

Friends and family are watching

 

Here I am

Between the pipes

Hoping for some shots

 

My team is great

Both Offense, Defense

Set up the perfect play

 

Up the ice

With determination and speed

Nice shot

They score

Again

And Again

And some more

 

The buzzer sounds

We won our game

My nerves are calmed for now

 

We get up next morning

Five AM

Cold and tired

 

The mornings are early

The nights late

We may be tired

But it’s still great
