Short Hitters Poems

E-very punch is thrown, 
M-aking the fighters stand strong, 
Y-et the weak one falls.

Pitchers pitching. Catchers catching.
Balls are in the air.
The smack of leather, bonding together.
A spring time love affair
Coaches coaching. Trainers training.
Stylish Unis, socks and hats.
Gatorades, fresh cut grass blades.
Soon hitters with big bats.
Fans are fanning, Radar guns scanning.
Baseball careers are born there.
Raise a beer. Praise The Jays and cheer
Springs just around the corner....

He is a San Diego native southpaw.
One of the best young pitchers I ever saw.
The Phillies chose him first in 2002.
In 2006 was his big league debut.
He has made his presence felt with all the teams.
He can baffle the best of hitters, it seems.
With wins and strikeouts, he will be the team’s ace.
Nobody can knock “King Cole” out of his place.
He will be pitching with many home crowd cheers.
May he delight Phillies fans for many years.

This Is My Plan

Now that things are quiet
Heavy hitters hanging low
It's time to post my bestest poems
And let my talent show

I see Deb, Lin and Andrea 
Are keeping kinda still
So,I might make it up that list
Where I can show my skill

My eye is on those top three spots
But, before I reach my goal
I'll have to go through Ninty-seven
Poets in a row

But seeing no one, is around
I don't know how I'll miss
To get my poem on the Top
Of The Hundred All-Time List...
