Best Volleyball Poems
The Volleyball GameAs 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...

Volleyball Time!Playing volleyball - give me more!
Don't let the sucker hit the floor!
Just don't dive and hit the floor
Or else have pain forevermore!
Fifteen points it takes to win
Then it starts all over again
Want to have fun and be fit?
Then playing volleyball is it!...

Cast Away--Wilson the VolleyballA stranded lone man
talking to a volleyball...
personified friend
though only listens
it gives him inspiration...

Football, Volleyball, Baseball --- a Nonsensical PoemFootball, volleyball, baseball, softball,
Racquetball, handball, basketball, hardball. . . .
There're lots of sports in the world you play with a ball,
And you can't play any of them if you're an oddball.
If you want to be good at any such sport,
You've...

Summer 2012 Olympics: Womens Beach VolleyballI wish I could be as gorgeous as you are now. Strong and strong-willed. Muscled and lean. Compact, hard, soft, curved. Covered in sand. You are all long legs, tendons straining to push muscles further. You are all long hair tied back, braided. Concentration written...

Spring Volleyball - a HaikuSpring Volleyball - A Haiku

out of untied shoe

n the gym forthwith
before hardwood floor bouncing
because of the net

DuplexYou trod
over
frosted
farmland
upon
your brow
was ice
and I
felt your
mind and
knew your
heart and
that was
a sad
device
Smoked out
your life
widowed
your wife
you'll not
have that
daughter
fair nor
dark haired
son to
toss up
midair
I dropped
you there
from my
dark lair
my sight
was true
I shot
you through
bid you
adieu
for you
wore green
while I
wore blue

Little ChangeThe day started with the teams made
but as one girl heard the news,
she just wanted to fade
fade like an old bruise
She knew her team wouldn’t
Let her be who she wanted
As they thought she couldn’t
Have any skills that she never flaunted
The games had started
But the...

To sue, the lawyer thought he had cause,

Escaped his detection,

Ants Hog GlenANTS HOG GLEN
Fiery red burns
Autumn orange
Army ants learn
How to hog Glen
High winged pigs
Fly blue in tune
Suctioning mouths
Pulling helium
Balloons

Summer DaysSinging birds and laughing children
Summer sounds seep into our senses
Friends, family and neighbors socialize
Backyard shaded lounging chairs
children playing nearby
Summertime sunshine and outdoor adventure
Fishing at dawn on smooth lake with dad
Swimming, volleyball, of course no teacher
Playing and riding bikes 'till called in for bed
Warm days... balmy...

For Kerri and AprilA cacophony of cheers
Sand sprays like fireworks
From feet, hands, ball, hair.
Four women, two-a-side,
In a battle for the ages.
A motion of fluidity and a
Knowledge brought forth
From years in the fray.
Sun, rain, the elements,
Just more adversaries
In a long procession of
Combatants put asunder
By their clear dominance
Of a gritty...
