The Gymnast
written by: Sofia Kioroglou
Running
jumping,
tumbling,
somersaulting,
flipping and
balancing.
Yes, I can do them all. My supreme performance on the rings has my mum fumbling for words. In my dreams, I am executing a challenging routine at the horizontal bar when you suddenly interrupt my stunt with your yelling voice. I don’t blame you. You just didn’t know I was working hard to win the gold medal on Sunday.
