This haiku describes the kind of serve that would drive me loony when I played tennis as the ball would spin into the service court and then take a wild spinning hop. Of course I couldn't hit it. Nicely done!

This is an imaginative take on the prompt. I enjoyed the rhyme and the power of the third line. Thanks for sharing and good luck for the contest.

I'm on your wave length, player.

I used to like the game and my serve was always one of those big looping things that turned into an ace if it landed. Few did, so that's why I write these comments and don't play any more.

I reckon you've captured the spirit of this competition. Your idea is simple, crisply written, and that rhyme comes perfectly for rhythm.

I hope you have some succes with this.

This is a super poem. The rhyming of 'serve' and 'curve' are well chosen and emphasise the point your poem makes. The word 'ace' provides an apt climax to your poem. Well done. I wish you well in the contest. Nigel.
