Ever wonder
which came first
the bat
or
the mitt

Seems like the bat
after which
then
you would discover
you could
sure
use a mitt

Nothing fancy about any of this
I
know
but
just want to share with
some
other kids
some
other baseball
fans
just want to acknowledge
that
I
have a bat
and
a
mitt
from long ago
when I
could swing
faster
and
catch
better
and
those two
are
like
brothers to me
really
all
the times we have been together
on the field
at
the plate
trudging home
some times
triumphant
some times

A bat and a mitt
are
essential
parts of
life
if you ask me

And they go together
well
base and ball
baseball
that too
