Baseball: Opening Day
 
  Muggy today, a
pop of the mitt, a whiff of
the grass, swish of the
bat in the April air,
and two little words: 'Play ball! '

A brilliant poem. It reminds me of my high school days, I was the catcher of my school's softball team. Thanks!

best regrads,

This poem captures what we, as Americans, wait for... those two words! Incredible how you said so much in 26 words. I enjoy all of your poems - of all lengths - but this one incorporates all of my senses, and that's always a good thing. Wonderful! X
