Poem
Derek Will you be able to bear it? First weekend in May And who the Yankees will play, Bringing slugging Louisville woods Tigers score if they could. In the Bronx Bombers get what they want. While springtime proposes A tradition featuring red roses. In Kentucky, a Derby is always held. Stories these four legged athletes do tell. As three-year Olds Being very bold In weather no longer cold Hanging in their stalls Standing tall Waiting for publicity and post time calls Dreaming of a Seabiscuit run When the mile dirt something is done Everybody will be wondering who actually won. Cheering having fun. Applauding the one Off to the winner circle celebrating in the warm bluegrass sun. On the first Your Marlins will have the thirst. Using those bats To physically challenge the politically hosted Nats Retired Pinstripe General German American King George watching from heaven. Monitoring the two-dollar betting While conversing with Mr. Ruth Getting the Highlander truth And Mr. Martin will still stir the marinara sauce. Screaming and yelling, “yeah yeah you are the boss.” All this is summer entertaining. Purpose is relaxing so who is complaining. Good luck playing Donnie ball. Fielding a civil warrior army whose names are not on any military memorial wall. Instead, their remembrance could be in a record book. Noticed if a fan decided to look. As I end this seventh inning stretch I do hear Cracker Jacks do make a nice afternoon mouthwatering catch.
