The perfect pitch

The bases are loaded

And it's all up to you

As you approach the plate

You know what you must do

With the bat in your hand

And a lump in your throat

You take your stance bravely

As anticipation grows

You see the white ball

Inside the pitcher's worn glove

As he twists it and hides it

Until he thinks, that's enough

He releases it suddenly

And it's coming towards you

Down the middle so sweetly

It's a pitch just for you

You swing the bat precisely

Starting back and then front

Until the wood hits the leather 

The ball is suddenly gone
