Basketball Haiku

A disadvantage

Grows worse and worse for the team.

They're losing a dream.



Still down by fourteen.

Two minutes left on the clock.

Can they win the game?



Now down by seven,

The team is catching up fast.

One minute left now.



Just ten seconds left.

A three is all they need now.

Can they score and win?



Yes, they score the three.

They had won the game today.

It's a happy time.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Haikus are usually about nature, but I wanted to do something different. Hope you like it.
