The Season Is About To Begin

Sitting here
in the community college
    looking at Sean Greens' "The Way of Baseball"
   I realize the baseball season 
        will soon be upon us 
Hordes of fans 
  will cheer on the New York teams 
Ever a Met fan 
   I have decided to see
their farm team - the Cyclones this year
    Brooklyn has a replacement for the Dodgers of old 
   This is a matter of some import 
for Brooklyn - garden spot of the world 
  and for the U.S.A. as a whole

what you said in your comment to me makes me feel jealous that I do not live in your wonderful city of New York. I could be maybe invited to attend these poetry readings with you and get to participate . it would be so thrilling!

Splendid with vivid pictures complementing a wonderful block of soul longing lines. A perfect 7 for a wonderful week.
