We had lots of ballgames in our front yard when I was growning up too. Kids don't have the fun that we did when we were young. We live to fast in this day. Cute little boys in the pictures. Karen

I love baseball. I was a Tom Boy most of my youth being the oldest of eight and having four brother's directly under me. I was good because I was taller than anyone and could catch the fly balls and pop ups. Great poem Felix. It reminds me of an old saying" You can't make it to home until you take your foot off of third."

What a fun memory, Felix. I used to love to play baseball with my brother, sisters and the rest of the kids in the neighborhood. You sent my mind wandering back to those times through your verses.
Take care,
Sherry

Felix,

For the love of the game, you and your brothers played. That's the way it should be. The big leaguers could learn a lesson from this nostalgic, beautiful write; thank you.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

You've hit a grand slam with me!
