we leave home plate
and run the bases
is life playing baseball?...

Love is always bases upon implied condition first expressed later on...

where the sky meets the dessert
sidewinder on rocks...

Hopefully the fly-ball catch
And around the bases dash!
Out for fun and maybe win
Play and play over again...

Home runs are exciting,
hormone inviting
and such.

The teams that do best, tho
regard bases as step towards.
They got the touch....

Silence -- bases loaded,
Base-runners paused, mid-pose'
Caps set, brows of sweat.
  Almost ready now.  Here comes:
  Pitch, Swing, Home Run, Cheer -- We Won!...

The bat is in Freddy Freeman's grip.
He's injured, but can he let it rip?
With two outs, bases loaded,
first pitch, his bat exploded - 
grand slam!  Freddy takes a four-base trip....

Bases for Cases That A Lawyer Faces

We always wondered what was basis,
Which had to do with all of the cases;
We read;
Often dread;
Then found that every lawyer faces.

Hit ball far,far,far
Home-run? Be team's star!

Round the bases - just be fast!
Please don't get to them last!

In field catch
Or meet match!

Stop them from run?
Least having fun!...

Rudolph Found Home

Rudolph's reindeer was less merry 
Till his horns haul of wild cherry
Gone were the pits
Red nose got a hit
Deer chased the bases in a hurry

looking for love, in all the wrong places
don’t just look at all the pretty faces
look at their heart, make sure they’re real
sometimes a friend is the best deal
quit trying so hard to round the bases...

The clear zing into the air
As my thoughts depart from existence.
The little brain waves ramble along the bases.
Sick to the thought of motion my spirit hovers.
For I never left home plate.
I am everywhere all the time....

There was a player on our team we called Rick
            He hit third and was really a great stick
    When on the bases, he made strange faces
And always thought that he could steal bases
                  Another out, he was slow as a brick...

April sixth, nineteen-seventy-three
A-L pitchers became bat free

and the designated hitter was born
and those fans did eat a lot of popcorn

Ron Blomberg was the first
that started the thirst

for homeruns and extra bases
as fans showed their happy faces...

Tinker Evers and Chance
their double play romance

Ty Cobb terror on bases
also with many faces

if Babe Ruth played today
can't imagine his pay

a D-H for sure
his homeruns were pure

baseball and fantasy
for me it is easy

baseball's my desire
my juices on fire...

Sand, sun, ocean breeze, clear blue water at my knees,
Exotic places, smiling faces, little kids are running bases,
Ice cream sundaes, laid-back Monday's, 
Laughing aloud without a care, chlorine dripping from my hair,
Riding bikes at the park, staying out until after dark.

Summertime....

“In a rundown, the runner is in a pickle that could become a rhubarb.” ~ by poet

Rundown.
He's trapped between
bases being pursued
by the fielders who glibly smile
because they know they have the advantage,
to perhaps overtake and tag
the beleaguered runner,
to foil the run.
Rundown.

`

It was the bottom of the ninth, two outs
We were down by one run
Bases were loaded
I was at the plate with a full count
I glanced to the stands and saw her
I smiled at her,
she smiled at him
I struck out, 
twice



Since the World Series is about to start
I decided to post something baseball themed. : )...

I know we can win
I know we can, I know it

Bases loaded,
Two outs,
It’s the last batter...
It’s me...

Swing! And a
Miss…strikes one!
Swing! And a 
Miss…strike two!
Last one…

crack! 
I see a dot of white zoom out over the in field
I see it zoom over the out field
It’s going and gone!

I knew we could win it…...

B ats balls bases shaped like a diamond 
A merica's favorite past-time being played 
S luggers hitting those home runs 
E ating hotdogs peanuts and crackerjack 
B ases loaded a grandslam 
A ll Star break in mid-July 
L obbing strikes over home plate 
L ove to watch the Boys of Summer play the game

    Shohei Ohtani is in a league of his own
       playing baseball in a whole new zone

    He hits home runs a mile
       poker-faced, never smiles
       
    Rounds the bases like lightning
       his speed almost frightening

    And this near-mythical man pitches ‘lights out’ too!
       Methinks he's a robot ~ How about you?

You could opt to  go whenever, to  wherever you please....
