Baseball Defines America

As in many,many poems and novels 
Baseball is something that defines the American people 
Thinking of the season ahead
Realizing that I did not  watch my health carefully  when young 
Happy to make it to 63 
And happy to watch the New York Metropolitans in their quest 
for glory

I hope we both make it to 100. HArd to tell with all the toxins out there these days! Yes, baseball IS the definitive american sport but it got overtaken by that dang football.
