The Game

The practices and games,
The batting and the ground balls,
The pop ups and line drives,
All just practice.
Just like every other day,
Early morning wake ups and late night games,
On the go meals,
Shorts, sliders, and cleats,
It’s not a fashion show,
It’s on the go.
Double headers and weekend tournaments,
Practices in between,
Teammates and best friends,
For me softball never ends.
It’s playing with all your heart,








Giving it you’re all.
It keeps the game alive,
And the audience in the stands.
It’s all part of the game.
