Foul Shot

This is a blog post about my story. We based it off the story foul shot which was in a basketball match with 5 seconds left. We used things like verbs, 2 stanzas one about you and one about the equipment and we had a new action every line.   

Foul Shot

With only 10 seconds left of the game,
And a solemn boy dribbling the ball,
Running,
Dribbling,
Comes into the D
Comes up to take a shot,

Breathes,
Crouches,
Lines his shoulders up,
Then smash!
The ball soars,
Flies,
Sails,
Floats like it’s in slow mo,
Plays it coy,
The crowd is silent,
And then
                            and then
                                                        and then,
It ricochets the goalie ……

And GOAL!

He runs and high- fives everybody.
