A game that’s played on many surfaces

Grass, concrete, clay

A thrilling and intense sport

The crowd screaming your name

Certainly is the best feeling when you play

The bounce of the ball

Hitting it is a bliss

Running across the court

But it’s a swing and a miss

When you play you learn

The swing must begin early

Before the ball is in sight

In order to get to it early

And hit it just right
