National Poetry Day: "I used to reminisce and ponder"

I used to reminisce and ponderOf playing netball in the sun, rain & the snowNo other sport had I been so fonderVery often I wished and said, you knowI would love to play netball again Of course it was so long ago, I would sighI just did not know what to doFar, far too late was the cryAnd I feared that was, so very trueI would love to play netball again But then one day by pure chanceFacebook answered my prayerI almost did a happy danceWalking Netball it did shareI might be able to play netball again Welcomed by Mary & PaulineDerby Velodrome was the placeBoth of ladies so cheery and keenMy dream came true, a smile upon my faceI AM playing netball again Lots of new friends, it's just the bestThere's loads of laughter and oodles of funI feel so thankful and so blessedWe are all so eager and try not to runI LOVE playing netball again Jane GlossopBelper, Derbyshire
