Basketball and badminton
And football fill me up with dread
Now I've a game thats all my own
And its played in my head
An athletic adjective
Lightly leaps across the page
As prepositions prance around
A proper noun takes centre stage
A simile compares itself
To high and mighty metphors
Alliteration speeds along
Competing fiercely with its peers
You think my game is stupid
And perhaps that I am wierd
But oh, how I love poetry
The joy of playing with words

Hi Nicola. I'd introduce a couple of alliterations in the alliterations line and end with a rhyme. But that's just fine tuning.
A great fun poem.
And I'd re-type metaphor.
Hope you're well. How's college? Have you finished yet?
Best
