Spring Training, Season Awaiting
Folder:
April 2010
Reading the newspaper, hoping to find the section of baseball,
longing to see that article, about last seasons bullpen clearing brawl,
glancing over the page, reading the daily notes for my team,
hoping for a successful season, and for winning to be this years theme.
First pitchers and catchers, then finally the rest,
next comes spring training games, then the rookies start to impress,
pitchers start to get higher pitch counts, starting lineups begin to take shape,
fans start to awake, watching baseball for an escape.
The weather starts warming up, Little Leagues have their parade,
the countdown begins fresh, as Spring training begins to fade,
Opening Day is just around the corner, its logo starts to taunt,
this season I am awaiting, and the full diamond is all I want.
