Ode+to+Tennis+Plate

The moment I walked onto the tennis court, I knew I wanted to be the one walking home with the big, **silver** plate, Shining like a row of pearls

The second I walked off the court, I looked at the **silver** plate, glaring right at me Oh how much it would mean to me to win the championships and receive the plate And be known as city champion

The results were soon to be announced, And I waited anxiously to hear how I did

When I found out that I won city finals, My face immediately **lightened** up I knew the plate was all mine, And that made me feel very accomplished I sat still for a while in a world of my own, Just thinking about how far I had come

On my way back home, I gazed at my **shining ** plate, As my reflection was **BoUnCiNg** off the mirror

When I arrived at home, I immediately placed the plate next to all of my tennis trophies It took its place with ** glee ** I thought about how all of my hard work and effort finally paid off
