Optimism

Folder: 
Humor

The Little League game was looking grim,

As I sat down on the bench next to him.

The score was already fourteen to no

With only five and a half innings to go.



Looking at him I said “Don’t get down”

And to my surprise he looked up and frowned.

Taking off his little baseball hat

Said “I am not down…we haven’t had our turn at bat!”.
