“TEAM”
By Bill McCurdy
__________
In Dedication to the 2015 Pearland Little League Team
Sunday, August 30, 2015
__________
Fungo us some fast fly balls – that make us try our best,
To bring down every aspirant hit – that hopes to leave its nest.
__________
Pepper us hard grounders too – that carom or seek holes.
So we can block and throw each out – with no sneak single moles.
__________
Make us bat till kingdom come – till all of us agree,
That winning comes from working – that hits are rarely free.
__________
Help us see that ego – is not the recipe,
For winning as a great team – is always you and me.
__________
Teach us how to show we care – when teammates reach our dream,
Each time we celebrate them too – we put the sting in team.
__________
And help us to remember – no matter how fates fall,
That all we reach as team – is the largest win of all.
