Double Header Whoosh

grab your choice cap

head out into the sun

the stadium shines

just a double header

springtime training fun

the tap of the bat

trying to sit, seat so hot

smiling, duck and miss

whoosh right past

that feeling of fear

that comes from a ball

moving at you..at 90 mph

tap, hit, smile, so hot

whew tangy beer and peanuts

lick the shell...we all do

5th inning hunger hits

hot dog time 

ketchup, mustard, so baseball

tap, duck, hit, miss

beautiful double header day

7th inning stretch..take me out to

so hot sweat drips

crowd screaming, fun gleaming

tush sticks to the sit...wiggle we all do

baseball hit...caught in crowd

handed to a child, tradition proud

beer is tangy, hits the throat

fly ball, sun is blinding

pictures, mascots, dug out seats

smell the cleats on clay

hot dog ,mustard on his chin 

she licks her thumb...we all do

rubs that mustard off...TRUE LOVE

baseball double header

super whoosh day 

hit, tap, duck, miss...

Hi Holly. A very good write about a double header baseball game. Good imagery and descriptives. Through the lens of your eye, you've painted a vivid picture of what goes on in the stadium that any reader can see in their mind's eye. Good flow and tone. Good depth of feeling. I can relate; it has been a while since I've been to a game, but you put me right there with your woods. Good word choice. Nice use of onomatopoeia. Good closing lines. Well penned and a most enjoyable read. Write on!

[Holly Mason]

thank you for coming to the game...whoosh and all*)

You're welcome. Thank you for sharing the game, Holly. Have a great day!

Makes me want to head out to a game - your details put me right there! Peanut shells, seventh-inning stretch, sunshine (and maybe a win for the team...) Great write, full of smiles! :)

[Holly Mason]

win for the team...yup yup*)
thank you for reading teach!!

This was wonderful to read for me Holly dear, for it gives me the feeling I don't ever have faced myself, being into such a game world as your world shares... (for I have been into European stadions) and all, but never into a baseball game...(only in movies and books I've been there). A fantastic feeling! thanks for sharing dear.

Truly adore this reply....never thought of it ...but you are right ...folks all have different ways of living....I am so glad to have taken you to a ball game...and I can tell ya when a ball at 90mph comes at you (even a 6ft. man ducks) the feeling is so intense..that you buy tickets to the next game*)
Thank you so beauty writer

You have definitely captured the feeling of being at the game in this one. In my opinion, there is nothing better than a good baseball game, sitting in the seats, drinking beer and eating hot dogs. Very nice my friend.
