PLAYING CATCH WITH MY FATHER

my daddy said
baseball was america's only
great game and i agree
every night when i sleep
i talk with him as
we play a game of catch
somewhere, my father is
bragging to john coltrane
and st. peter
about the foundation he helped
lay down for the colorado rockies *
ballpark
and how it brought them
luck

-- Erren Geraud Kelly

* the colorado rockies made it to the world series in 2007
