Notes About The Poem

March Middleness

First half of the month cooler, then the second half warmer

Spring clocks turned forward, daylight lasting longer

Games of gold always told, losing harassed nine-fold

Allowed homers and walked batters that would be never

Scrimmage full of big time moments given, at the end guilt-ridden,

but rainy days getting more frequent leaving fields flooded.

Rainout, rain delay, games are stopped or canceled

deep into the night as fans sit in the grandstands

Agonizing for players and fans alike going home drenched

Despite the weather or the ups and downs of the sports

games will be played and fans will always spend watching their sporting events
