First Time Around
A smile on her face
and a gleam in her eye,
zeal gets her on first.
W A T C H
Next play, pure luck
pitcher overthrows second.
She's half-way round.
F O C U S
Third batter bunts;
out number one at first,
She makes it to third.
G L E A M
Sacrifice fly ball
she heads for home.
Ump bellows, "Safe!"
