Always trying out..

In high school I always tried out…

I loved basketball..but never made the team..

I held a hockey stick…but couldn't make the grade..

I had a tennis racket..but my garage wall was my partner…

I served a mean volleyball..but only in the air

I've never experienced being a cheerleader or attempted a split..

I never experienced being in the ‘cool group’..

Or partied with the football team..

In summers I couldn't go to the shore with my friends..it was always as a couple..

I've always been a great swimmer, but I could never ‘water ski’..all legs tangled in leads…

In the winter I tried to ski..but sitting on my butt was easier sliding down..

I've never parachuted out of a plane..I'd probably puke in the air

So many things in the world “I wish I could” but never have..so trying things is the best I'm going to be..
