Ode+to+a+trophy

media type="custom" key="730359" A surface of plastic ripples, Like ripples along the water, A memory that can’t be forgotten.

It stands on the shelf like a player waiting to shoot, It is a reminder of victory, Uncontested undefeated victory.

It is a memory of fresh grass And the loud blow of the whistle, It is a memory of rolling on soft black socks Over rough shin guards, It is a memory that will last through a trophy.

A trophy Earned through teamwork and hard work, A trophy Earned through a team called the Cruise. A team with 12 unstoppable 12 year olds, Determined to win.

This trophy is A thing that will resemble a perfect season A perfect season that was earned, A perfect season that will never be forgotten.
