Playing Ball

I reached in to pull out my all playing ball … without alcohol Head up, I breathed brave and stepped up to the plate … felt like dodge ball bait Sunshiny bases enticed my run-gained mount … on feared three-two count Bat smacked contact so I ran like a wildcat … clawed first base splayed flat I reached in to pull out my all playing ball … fun enriched windfall - worth future recall ...
