THE BALLPARK, a poem by Mark T. Rumsey from USA
The ballpark'
It's a place like no other
From the little boy in uniform
Smiling, his hat pulled over his ears
To the old man in the lawn chair
He's keeping book, but no one knows his name
The ballpark'
It's teammates, that special bond
That only a ballplayer knows
The heckler in the stands
The crowd, the players and the fans
The ballpark'
It's strike one and ball four
The 6-4-3 double play
The can of corn, the punch and judy
The 3 for 4 on the day
The ballpark'
It's the ump or blue behind the plate
The missed strike, the foul ball
The bang ' bang play at first base
We forget he's only human
He's trying to keep up with the pace
The ballpark%u2026
It's the glove, the bat and the ball
The spikes, the cleats
The matching shirts and dirty pants
A lineup that reads like a murderer's row
Loaf, Nellie, Rum and Drone
The ballpark'
It's the last out of the last game of the last season
Oh Lord' I have been so lucky
The teammates, the games, one last dance
Just one more for old times sake
The ballpark, the game, the chance
