The save

In class we have being making a poem about sport. The actions would only take

about 10 seconds. We have also being learning about stanzas. For our success criteria we had to have 2 stanzas. Also we had to have a each verb on a new line.

This is my poem about hockey.

The save

10 seconds hanging on the clock.

The scores are locked on 2.1.

Slipping past the last of the defenders

Into the D

As the colossal pads stick to the socks

Sweat builds up in my socks

Ready's the forehand   

Smashes the ball

Places foot

Ready's for a save

Pounces

Bang`

Slap

And then

               And then

                                And then

Ricochets off kicker

Back to the player

The game goes on

Relieved

No hammering

For the moment
