The Saturday Morning Tee-Ball Hero

 

This one’s for you, tee-ball dads!

 

A little moppet scampers around the tee

Waving her plastic bat as a warrior’s sword

Or as a fairy-wand to magic the day

Her first-ever tee-ball lesson with Dad

 

He places the ball upon the tee; she swings –

“Now wait until Daddy takes his hand away…”

WHACK!

He didn’t know the bat was all that hard!

 

He rubs his hand and adjusts his cap; she laughs –

At her daddy the Saturday tee-ball hero
