Basketball

A ball as bounce as a bounce ball,

one that rarely stops,
a sphere just like the earth.

The four lines help create the grip,

It helps to hold on, to keep control,
Keep everything together,
Keep the ball going, and to finish.

To get through the hard times you have to bounce around them,
It’s like keeping control when you get frustrated,
Keep control when things don’t go your way,
Ball is what we live in.
