Analysis Of Baseball

It’s about

the ball,

the bat,

and the mitt.

Ball hits

bat, or it

hits mitt.

Bat doesn’t

hit ball, bat

meets it.

Ball bounces

off bat, flies

air, or thuds

ground (dud)

or it

fits mitt.

Bat waits

for ball

to mate.

Ball hates

to take bat’s

bait. Ball

flirts, bat’s

late, don’t

keep the date.

Ball goes in

(thwack) to mitt,

and goes out

(thwack) back

to mitt.

Ball fits

mitt, but

not all

the time.

Sometimes

ball gets hit

(pow) when bat

meets it,

and sails

to a place

where mitt

has to quit

in disgrace.

That’s about

the bases

loaded,

about 40,000

fans exploded.

It’s about

the ball,

the bat,

the mitt,

the bases

and the fans.

It’s done

on a diamond,

and for fun.

It’s about

home, and it’s

about run.
