My life in the dirt

My home is on grass.
My life is in dirt.
I live under the sky.
I roll around on the try line pass.

Scrum, tackle, try, draw, interchange, teams, places, jersey, coaches, managers, games.
Finals,
semi-finals,
preliminary finals,
quarter finals.
Win or lose, doesn't matter.

My knee took it from me.

I love time,
because it is healing.
I hate time,
because it is taking too long.

I'll be back.
