After a long,long time

A decision emerges

To play tennis 

Again.

A knock about tennis

Session  revealed practice 

Was needed .

Ropey backhand and

Forehand.Rushing to

Hit the ball .

Another decision emerges,

Lessons are needed .

After the second lesson

Confidence grows .

It all comes flooding 

Back .

Hitting a ball is

So satisfying.

Angry,

Hit a ball.

Misunderstood,

Hit a ball 

Frustrated ,

Hit a ball.

Tennis therapy .

Each ball over the net.

Each point achieved,

Life feels good ..

When a shot is missed

Determination and

Resilience  emerges.

Resilience  in the face

Of Adversity. The reason

Why tennis works

For me..
