Spring Sports Stanzas

4-3

The kickstand lifts for a kinetic thrill
A cycle on nature’s path promises physical play
With Spring sun shining, a scintillating skill

High noon demands considerable conditioning
A split set with double deuces drains one dry
With each poach pressuring perfect positioning

Flea flickers fly fluently forward with force
A football preseason frolic reveals rust on rooted rubble
With grass growing gradually on a gridiron coarse

Out of the park propels the proper pitch
A sparkling star sails in a cloudless Spring sky
With a striding runner touching home without a hitch

Parting points: Coincidentally, my favorite actor and actress are born today. Happy birthday to the cool, Marlon Brando and charismatic, Jennie Garth.
Also hard to believe baseball note: Ken Griffey, Jr. made his major league debut twenty years ago today.
“Your faith has saved you; go in peace”
