What a pass!
It's the adrenaline that you feel,
Just enough passion and desire to win
I look around and see dozens of eyes on the court
the same court I'm standing in
This court that hold thousands of emotions, from nervousness to excitment
I anxiously wait for the ball to be served
I watch my opponent carefully,
observe her position, her strength, and her aim
I adjust myself to her, set up and wait for the ball to cross the net
With much speed and force the ball comes my way
MINE, MINE, MINE!
I feel the force of the ball as it rebounds from my arms
"What a great pass!', I hear my teammate say
and suddenly forget all my worries that I had stuck in my mind all day
It's this sport that brings so much joy
Volleyball.
