Baseball
            
             Baseball is a game I love
             And one I'm always dreaming of.
             I play it in summer and spring
             To enjoy the fun that these days bring.
            
             Practice makes perfect is what they say,
             So all work hard to be this way.
             Basics and fundamentals, the coaches repeat,
             Are the keys to avoid defeat.
            
             Day in, day out, coaches encourage the team
             In order to fufill the players' dream.
             The goal is to win championships
             And, along the way, everlasting friendships.
            
             Many players act like kings
             Once they receive state championship rings.
             But the humble, gracious ones thank the Lord,
             For giving them the talents for this award.
            
             Losing shouldn't be a shame,
             For a team can't win every game.
             This is hard for many to bear,
             But we know life isn't always fair.
            
             When the game is over and all is done,
             The team will reflect and say, "Oh, what fun!"
             Despite much pain and heart-felt sorrow,
             We will work together to face tomorrow.
            
             When the season is finished,
             And time for playing is diminished,
             The players return home to think of
             What they will do without this game they love.
