Journey’s imperfections

Discovering each day

Simple philosophy

Always swinging away

 

Freedom to meet failure

Swinging again with might

Confidence maturing

Baseball rises in flight

 

Pathway toward success

Achieving one more dream

Every strikeout teaches

Lessons ride each sunbeam

 

Vision’s bright tomorrow

Learning from yesterday

New challenges arrive

Inning’s next double play

 

Courage stepping out front

Embracing today’s game

Fearless in attitude

Humbleness blends with fame
