Write A Poem About Where And When You Feel Most At Peace 1 years, 1 months ago Peace on the Pitch
Abigail Jane StopkaMinds quiet,
Comrades at my side,
Breathing deep — I’ve never felt so alive.Beneath my cleats,
The earth greets,
“Balls out!” echoes, as my heart beats.Rising, falling, our rhythm like a drum,
Together we advance,
The oval ball snug.Ahead, a wall—
Formidable, true,
Yet to the earth I’m flung, feeling anew.Cheers swell from the sidelines, ringing,
Vibrations through the field, singing,
We surge as one, our spirits linking.Here on this pitch,
Where triumph tastes sweet,
In the sweat of defeat, our memories meet.Below the surface of fear,
Underneath the competitive cheer,
Amid the tumult, clarity draws near:In the push and pull, of this day,
The beautiful chaos sway,
I find peace in this crazy game I play.Voting is closed
Abigail, Thank you for accepting my friend request-that’s cool and inspiring in itself!!! You are a very beautiful woman with a lot of potential and an Awesome future!!! Your poem for the challenge was very breathtaking, exciting and powerful< almost like I was there myself! I like the part about "rising, falling our rhythm like a drum", it's ironic too because I have a book in the process of being published called "Falling Shadows"-as well as I just finished one called "Rising Shadows". So I think that is absolutely Amazing!!! Keep taking care of yourself, continue being an inspiration and live the best life you can, I'm quite sure everyone is blessed by You!! God Bless-Timothy 🙂
