"Where im from"
“Where I’m from”
by:Johanna Delgado
I am from a black and white ball,
I am from kicking others by accident.
I am from shaking people hands,
When we finish the game.
I am from running up and down.
I am from making goals in the net,
I am from seeing people scream,
and passing the ball to the rest.
I am from tasting the sweat on my face,
tasting the cold water during break,
I could taste my dry mouth
when I was playing around.
I am from running back and forth,
getting through defense,
to shoot to the goal.
I am from hearing people cheer.
I could hear people calling my name.
I would think before,
I heard the referee whistle,and say
“We’re done with the game!”
