The Footy Field

The whoosh of the wind blowing the ball through the air waiting for someone to catch it and put the footy over the last grassy white paint line and score a try.
Waiting to hear the crowd’s cheers of joy.
Feeling the heat of the hot sun.
Smelling the soft, fresh grass.
Touching the rubbery grip of the ball as if it is gold or treasure.
