Ang Bola
ni Rogelio F. Falcutila
Ihagis mo ang bola, at sasaluhin ko;
Huwag lalakasan baka tamaan ang ulo;
Itapon mo na handa na ako;
Hawakang mabuti upang paghagis diretso.
Ayusin ang paghagis tumingin sa harap;
Titigan ang tagasalo, ihagis ng katamtamang lakas;
Gawin ng paulit-ulit na may kapareha
Upang maging isang mahusay na atleta
