Volleyball
Crouched and ready I wait for the spike,
My feet touching the floor ever so light.
An open hand and the spike is a "tip,"
Someone yells as I bite my lip.
I spring into action and dive for the ball.
I stretch out my hand and make contact as I fall.
It's a perfect up and I roll out' a the way
As the setter sets and our team makes the play.
Of course it's a kill and our team wins the volley
And all because I made NO folly!!

VOLLEYBALL
My head is throbbing,
I can't see straight.
Our score is three,
Their score is eight.
We're down by five,
We're catching up.
My turn to serve,
Please don't mess up!
My serve is over,
To the right.
Out of bounds,
And out of sight.
"Oh no!" I yell,
The other team cheers.
Their turn to serve,
I'm close to tears.
Her back is straight,
Her arms are long.
Their score at eight,
But not for long.
The toss goes up,
The crowd looks down.
Her serve is short,
Her teammates frown.
Our turn again,
To serve once more.
It's in the air,
It hits the floor!
One point for blue,
Still down by five.
But not for long,
We're coming alive!!!
It's still our serve,
She throws it up.
What a curve!
Another point for blue!
Their faces blank,
They don't know what to do.
We got it back and won the game.
We stole the ball,
Put them to shame.
As you may see,
Volleyball is an intense game.
But when you win,
No one's to blame

Volleyball is my favorite sport.
I bump, set, spike my way to victory.
I’m so happy when I’m on the court.
A champion is what I want to be.
There are six players that make up a team.
They all work together in unison.
The feeling I get is so extreme.
I hate to see the end of the season.
Volleyball is not all about winning,
it’s about having fun together.
We were doing that since the beginning.
Rain or shine, or any kind of weather.
Volleyball is what I do to have fun.
And the best part is you don’t have to run.
