Best Pitcher Poems

The Lord poured me, a pitcher of time.
For my personal use, it was only mine.

A generous portion, it seemed I got.
I wasted so much, I poured out a lot.

Exchanged for things, not a bargain in the end.
I can't get time back, it's not something I...

Pitcher deals.
Center snaps. 
Forward volleys.
Captain kneels.
Wing traps.
Road team rallies.
Runner steals.
Driver laps.
Bookies watch at O'Malleys.
Coach jaws.
Goalie paws.
Mothers pray.
Midfielder moans.
Winners eat macaroons.
Fathers look less gray.

Refs tally the time left
'Til the moon rises.
Fans leave, bereft,
Searching for further surprises....

When the pitcher of that little girl broke
And the nectar-like water she’d carried from far shed;
Some smiled; some laughed; some scolded her carelessness,
Some walked on their way as its normal happening;
It’s the poor neighbor boy, who was carrying two of such, 
Gave her one; erased...

I never knew a pitcher like the one I met today,
he nibbled at the corners, then brought it hard and fast.
Though others have been on the mound, I really have to say,
I never knew a pitcher like the one I met today.
I was trembling in...

Pitcher of Beer

While we will not ever disagree,
Under tree each one wanted to see,
Where there pitcher drawn had gone;
Did dawn on them when on front lawn,
It happened to be inside of me

James Thesarious Hilarious Horn
Retired Veteran and Poet

Now there is quite a rhyme scheme
for you. See...

Pitcher on the shelf
In your scared body  covered with paint
The capacity to love and live again remain
Caught trapped from years of abuse
Hurt impossible to explain
Even family can't see through to the pain
Right will win but when...

In her heart just beneath her skin lays a tin pitcher.
The spout along with it's sides covered with frost from the coldest of water.
Parched lips long for a drink.
But without cup or glass.

I implore that I have swallowed fear of the utmost; Diving in head...

The empty scared pitcher
Nicked, cracked, and in need of paint
Trying to fill it with water 
It leaked on the sink

Spilling forth to wet
The surfaces and the floor
A little prayer to God above
Filled the pitcher with his love

Now repaired and just like new
Water pours forth
Not spilling...

Diving for the ball,
Balling into a dust-
Orange roll,
The catcher tossed it back to the pitcher
After a ball three, and walked up to him.
The descent of the night's sky 
Made the ballfield lights a sudden relevance.
The catcher's cleats hit the ascending tip
of the diamond. He threw...

Poor Batter and Pitcher

Have often wondered what is the matter,
With the Mariner Pitched including batter;
Errors made;
Into past fade;
Which has been the worst former or later?

From outfield judging eyes await your plight, 
though sweat and stupor feign to your ruin.
Now pull up your trousers, cinch your belt tight...
glaring down from mound, pitch straight and proven. 

Blurred ball unleashed, pitcher's swift arm uncoiled... 
tho' bat be av'rage, the batter may not.
Cauldron-like...

It only took about ten minutes for me to warm up,
so, I had time to play catch with a friend on my team.
The line-ups were given to the umpire, the umpire
yelled two of my favorite words, “Play Ball”.

We were the visitors, so we batted first.
Our...
