Echoes on the Court
Inspired by ‘Because I could not stop for Death’ by Emily Dickinson
In sport’s embrace, I found my flight,
With ball in hand, I soared so high.
The court, a stage, where dreams took flight,
In rhythmic dance, beneath the sky.
The hoop, a goal, beyond my sight,
Yet, with each shot, I dared to try.
Through sweat and tears, through day and night,
I chased my passion, reaching high.
Though time may pass, and seasons fade,
My love for hoops, it shall abide.
For in the game, my soul’s displayed,
In every leap, my spirit’s guide.
‘
So let the clock tick, let the whistle blow,
For on this court, my heart shall show.
In every jump, we touch the sky,
In every block, our spirits fly.
The court, our stage, where dreams don’t die,
In every game, we testify.
