Green Monster

Someone there is that loves the Green Monster That wants to sit upon the wall and holler I thought of this in Nineteen Seventy-Five Forty-three years later my day has arrived Thirty-seven feet is a lofty perch Baseball viewing: No better spot on Earth Dollars and cents can’t account the days-worth The grand old game is a priceless treasure A game by which there is no clock to measure The game proceeds for nine innings per match A unique quality that true fans grasp Played in parks all shiny and new; also Hallowed grounds from which history abounds Fans argue about which venue is best I simply say, “Good walls make good ballparks” August 15, 2019
