My Soccer Boots

Bright orange geometric patterns
the soft polyester comforting my shot
transparent blue studs
size of a tissue box
a household for my feet
a texture like bark
moves like a stag
quick thinking and fast
pounces a ball like its prey
into the back of the net
the power it holds
makes the goalkeeper fret
tastes like a symbol of glory
its tethered leather used over again
ball-basher, curve-conjurer
silent, speedy, and strong
The happiness brought to my face
when I opened that box
my brilliant soccer boots
will not soon be forgot
My soccer boots are special to me because soccer is my life. They allow me to dribble and run on the pitch like no one can. They are bright and have the best grip ever. My soccer boots are special to me because without them, I wouldn't be able to play to my potential.
