Bases loaded,
one out,
he hears the chants.
Three balls,
two strikes,
his heartbeat races
to a familiar tune.
Pitch thrown,
he swings to hit,
sounds of pandemonium
fill the air.
The comforting sound
of metal connecting to rubber.
Music to a mother's heart.
Another concert season
has begun.
May-the musical month for
Mother's Lilac's
and Little League.
