It has long been awaited but,
Here you finally are.
Baseball, Oh Baseball!
You are America’s Pastime.
In my eyes, you’re this land’s HEART and SOUL.
As you do every season, you finally return another year.
Here you finally are in 2020.
You will be played, they finally say. It has been long awaited.
Oh, but what a pity, a virus will take away the simple joy of going to the ballpark. Oh, how it will wreck the tradition of the game
Socially distant, everyone must stay.
New RULES, the fans and players must abide by.
Oh must we complain?
No we shall try not to.
America’s game is back,
And baseball is its name.
Through the tragedy of CORONA,
It shall be played .
Soon, the home plate ump will say,
“PLAY BALL!!”
And only he and his umpiring crew will make the calls of the game.
WE, as fans, can only hope that they make the calls
“PLAY BALL!”, those are the words I been waiting to hear this year.
But health and safety have to be assured before this year’s World Series champ can rise.
We know now,
JULY will be the summer month that baseball will be played.
Oh, what a joy it will be,
To see baseball back on the TV

This is very innovative; an ode dedicated to your love of baseball.
