    I surf the net every night and day,
    following legends like Lee Yong Dae.
    Every step, stroke and flick on the shuttlecock,
    I study to mimic next day on the sweaty court

    My legs and lungs scream out at the strainful pace
    but my mind and heart still hungers for glory's taste
    With every lunge and swing bringing me closer
    I just can not stop this rollercoaster

    My soul just yearns to glide around gracefully
    the court says no, you'll grind away painfully.
    Bleeding my mind point by point,
    set by set pushed to the tipping point.


    But look, again I am holding the racket
    Pounding and steaming to get right back in.
    A thousands sighs with every breath
    Such is my love for badminton

    Wow! BC has its own Poet Laureate!:cool:

    (It would seem that the OP is from England ... maybe it rhymes with the accent. ;))

    I was also abit concerned about the lack of rhyme in the last paragraph.
    But thank you so much, your comments absolutely made my day.
    And yes Fidget I live in the UK : )
