Two Poems from our Basketball Poetry Collection

 
 
UNTITLED
   
Author: Sabrina Alexander
   
Poem:
UNTITLED
   
  It's basketball season once again,
playing hard as I can,
getting a break every now and then,
and trying to block out the noise of the screaming fans.

It's basketball season once again,
nearly dying, but yet playing very hard to win.
People on the sideline screaming my name,
feeling nervous and excited, this game wasn't the same.

I started steeling balls, getting the fouls, shooting the ball and scoring,
suddenly I felt all the excitment pouring,
at the end of the game the score was fifty-eight to twenty-nine,
I was speechless and my face began to shine.

The game was now over and done,
and for the first time this season we had won.

It's now the end of the season,
but it felt like the beginning for some reason.
I didn't care, I was just waiting for the next season to begin,
and for anyone who ask, basketball season will come again.

BASKETBALL
   
Author: Patrick Cassidy
   
Poem: BASKETBALL
   

As I dribble down the court
I hear the whistle blow
The ref yells out two shots
And sends me for a free throw
I make my first shot it goes down with a swish
But for my second shot I could only wish
I really want to make it
Go ahead and save the game
But instead I airballed and felt really lame
Coach called a time out and said I want the ball
Steal it on the throw in and we will win it all
The center throws the ball in and our player jumps in front
He throws his little hands up and the ball goes bump
Its in the air now and it is right where I can see
So I jump as high as I can and it lands right on me
I dribble to the three point line, stopped and popped a shot
But next thing that I knew it bounced right out
The teams scrambled for a rebound we’re still trailing them by three
But out of nowhere our team grabs the ball and throws it back out to me
I try to take the three again and this time it’s a swish
I never could have done it without our team’s dish
My coach said I saved the game with my Hail Mary shot
He jumped up and down and celebrated quite a lot
We’re going to the championship
Hooray Yee hah Yippee
We never could have done it without Patrick Cassidy
