Haiku Friday: Baseball is back!

 


Do I care about major league baseball? Not very much! Is it back anyways? Yes!

Admittedly, some people (like IPLawGuy, pictured above), do care about opening day-- he is usually there, scorecard in hand.  So, if you know a lot or a little, let's haiku about pro ball this week. Here, I will go first:

Old Ernie Harwell
That voice meant it was summer
(He made a lot up).

Now it is your turn! Just use the 5/7/5 syllable pattern, and have some fun....

Went to Twins game one
It was cold and power went out
Left by inning two

Cardinals flew bold
In cabin all art forms, lived
Every single game.

They punctuated
Each base,colored the green,waiting—
For man, ball. Moon rose.

Greased pigs ran like wind,
Nun massaged, shenanigans—
Theatre and thrills.

Gritty and greasy
Grand old Tiger Stadium
Steel girdered Mecca

Dark and cavernous
Probe through the crowded concourse
Churning masses. Noise

Decipher the codes
The clues painted on the walls
Where do I belong?

A portal revealed
Sunlight and emerald green
Exhilarating !
