Excited

Every day I see children excited
Makes me feel really delighted
Children on a playground swing
Parents just sitting doing their thing

I go to the races, and when they win
People just cant keep their excitement in
The thrill of winning is bound to excite
Especially for a contest on a poetry site

Been a long time since I have had luck
At the club one night I won a duck
I was lucky that I  had struck it
Until I got home and had to pluck it

Had my share of excitement and fun
Last year I went in City to Surf fun run
Hundreds of entrants at the starting
Many on the way were seen departing

This the end of my entry to the contest
I'll be excited if picked as the best
I'll put the trophy high up on a shelf
Cause the only one to look at it is myself.
