Our Standards
October 7, 2015
Bright, short, green turf.
A perfect day.
Soccer ball in the middle.
We’re ready to play.
Working really hard.
Looking pretty good.
But this is by,
our standards
Big, tall, fast opponents.
Not a very good day.
Soccer ball in our net.
We’re ready to quit.
But we’re still,
Working really hard.
Looking pretty good.
Because this is by,
Our standards

My favorite sport of soccer inspired my poem. We had a tough game but I still love soccer. I guess something good came out of it, this poem.
