Happy Wimbledon

For those of you who love Wimbledon, here's a little poem

The ball

A poem in five sets for Wimbledon

 

The bounce,

the bounce,

the bounce,

the bounce,

the bounce,

the bounce.

 

The pause,

the breath,

the throw,

the stretch,

the snap,

the serve.

 

The hand,

the eye,

the racquet,

the strings,

the spin,

the return.

 

The slice,

the drop,

the get,

the lob,

the smash (ow!),

the point.

  

The deuce,

the advantage,

the break.

The game,

the set,

the match.
