Covid Plays Baseball

The season’s almost over One game left to go It was better than expected Much worse than I had hoped So many blown saves For fans watching on TV A walk off home run For the opposing team As the home team in our park T-ball rules to shorten games Speed wasn’t what first drew me in Or the reason I watched the game in the first place Ha! I said it FIRST PLACE The dream of spring When life begins But Spring was Summer And now its passed The season’s gone now Much too fast And I’m left wondering If there’ll be A season next year For an older me.
