Poem
There was a time when I was the one standing in that green grass
I was the little one running the bases, running fast

There was a time when I was the one fielding that ground ball, making the play
I was the one listening to every word that the coach would say

There was a time when I was the one standing on third, listening to the coach in the coach’s box
I was the one that had on that uniform wearing my ball pants high at the top of my socks

There was a time when I was in that dugout yelling those cheers
I was the one, when got hurt, would hold back those tears

There was a time when I was the one, playing the game, having fun
But now the roles are reversed and my new role has just begun

Now I’m the one wearing this coach’s shirt
I’m the one that must take care of you when you get hurt

Now I’m the one teaching and showing you
You’re the one listening like I used to do

Now I’m the one who watches the game from the other side of that chalk line
I can’t go in, I just have to watch it from the other side

Now I’m the one giving signals, telling you what to do
I’m the one, when you get down, that must encourage you

Now I’m one that must push you a little more
Making you play hard, giving you something to work for

Now I’m the one who must try to make this game fun
But remember I’m new at this, this coaching experience has just begun

And you’re so young, it’s important you get the right fundamentals now
It’s funny that’s it my job to show you how

But I guess I can do it, I do know the game
I just want you to love it as much as I did, just the same

It’s a passion that I have that I am now passing to you
And I hope that you put this information into great use

It’s something that I’ve worked for; put in a lot of time
But now I’m watching it from the other side
