When I Take the Shot

It is about the camaraderie of competing together on a teem.

After waiting and waiting I’m finally on the field.
Running all the way down with the wind viciously blowing in my face.
I make a pass to my teammate and my opponents immediately swarm him like a crowd of bees
He tries to make a pass but the defenders ferociously steal the soccer ball from him.
I fell back with my teammates but the player had already shot
We are all so worried about what might happen next
It goes to the top right corner of the net and I hold my breath
Luckily our goalie jumps up and saves it and I breath again
I have the ball once more but the defenders are coming at me quick
So based on instinct I make another pass which gets my defenders off me.
I run into the net and I feel so much pressure when I finally get a pass.
I then turn around and take the shot.

spring

Delicate petals and soft flowers
Are cozy seats for bugs
Bees eat the delicious nectar
off the flowers.

Wonders of Nature

I can imagine the scene with the animals playing by the creek.
Amazing how she talks about saying goodbye to childhood being a child herself! Time does go by fast.

I love this poem because by the end, I realize that she’s making a subtle but powerful connection between the animals she writes about and childhood. I first visualize animals playing but by the end I visualize children instead. It brings nostalgia to the reader and is very powerful!

What a powerful and perfect simile to compare friendship to a seed! Both are powerful and life affirming, and I love how the author uses the word “deep” both literally for a seed, and metaphorically for friendship. Very honest and powerful!

spring

A beautiful poem, because it transports the reader to that essence of spring, that we all know and love. I can see and smell all the sites. My favorite part is how she compares the petals of flowers to being cozy seats for bugs. Wonderful imagery and use of metaphors.
