Dribble, squeak, swish, tweet, clang, brick, thump
these are the sounds of basketball
Dribble, dribble, dribble, squeak, thump, swish,
this is driving the lane and shooting a layup,
taking 3 dribbles then two steps and a quick shot off the backboard
On defense it goes slide, slide, slide, squeak, thump, swat
this is sliding and then getting set and blocking a shot
Dribble, pass, squeak, squeak, thump, dribble,
dribble, swish
This is dribbling, then passing, so my teammate scores, when the ball is
In the air for what felt like an eternity, but the ball finally goes in
This sport brings me joy
