Character description: basketball


“Wheeeeeeee”went the whistle. The thumping sound of shoes slowly faded away and with it voices rose out of thin air. The ref indicated a number on his fingers,“12,my number.” I muttered. A boy from the other team that had a number 5 on his back,threw the ball in to another player. He had straight jet Black hair that went down to his eyes. His nose was pale with a lot of freckles that looked like tiny basketballs. He also had sapphire blue eyes with emerald green. His ears usually looked pale white but now were a bright ruby red. there were beads of sweat dripping down his face and hair. The neck was long and skinny as well as arms that looked like they had been stretched like a rubber band, perfect for slam dunks. His shoulders were sloping like a steep hill. The thumping sound of shoes suddenly lifted off again,then a huge WHUMP!!!Then a whistle,he had scored!!!

What A Sporty World

In the oval,
I defend the wickets.
The ball comes rushing,
In the game of cricket.
And I think to myself,
What a sporty world.

In the mountains
I watch the skiing.
When it's their turn,
They start by fleeing
And I think to myself,
What a sporty world.

So many sports,
So easy to do.
Rushing through white water,
In a fast canoe.
So many sports,
So easy to do.
So many to choose from,
Mountain climbing and rugby too.
And I think to myself,
What a sporty world,
Yes I think to myself,
What a sporty world.
