The Volleyball Game

As I enter the volleyball game I hear The hustle and bustle of the crowd Shuffling towards their seats. Everyone settled. The audience marvel and chit-chat. The judge raises his hand. A hush fall over the crowd. “Whree-” the game starts. Pitter patter pitter patter pitter patter- Boof! The ball sails over the net and is Bopped gently back. It’s tossed high and Bam! It’s a goal. The spectators roar, and some sigh. Pitter patter pitter patter pitter patter- oof! The ball hits the net. Some cheer, some huff. This goes on until the last goal is scored-Thump! The crowd squeals and laughter rings with claps. The winning team’s shoes skeet as they run And thump each other’s backs, bursting with laughs. The losing team pads back with sniffs and sobs But swears to take revenge.
