Sonnet for Frisbee

The gilded disc flies smoothly through the air.

Glinting in the sun, it catches a gust

Of wind, rising through hands and clouds of dust.

On the run, time for a dive, does he dare?

Defender follows, two bodies ensnared

Topple through the air, and with one last ******

His fingertips meet the disc. He rolls just

Over the line, and through the air cheers tear.

 

The crowd storms the field in jolted frenzy

As the defenders hang their heads in shame.

His teamates lift the brave frisbee hero

Like a king who slaughtered the enemy.

Those that witnessed this great chamionship game

Saw the best display of athletic show.
