Happy Valentine’s Day 2011, Houston Baseball Fans!
Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Spring’s almost here,
And baseball is too!
If thoughts, filled with dread,
Try to overcome you,
Shout, “The Astros are coming,”
And that ought to do!
Raising new hopes,
Of a pennant or two,
But wisely, not now,
2014 sounds true!
On Castro! On Wallace!
On Johnson! No scourn!
Keep busting your butts,
Till you’re good as Mike Bourn!
On Lee! Hunter Pence!
Cliff Barnes! And Bill Hall!
Go push your best game,
Till the Astros walk tall!
Go Meyers! Go Wandy!
Go Lyon! Go Happ!
Keep breezing their fannies,
Till they look like a sap!
Remember, the best team,
Is the sum of its parts!
So go out and play now,
With the strongest of hearts!
Houston, Baseball, & Other Musings.
