My diary

authors note: i loved this poem because i love baseball and sports plus it has a good message that everyone strikes out  eventually.  
Entry number 69

Why did I let the first to strikes go past why is that I was so cocky im Casey I never strike out. Is that why I struck out because I was cocky or is it because im just getting older. I should be a little less cocky and a lot more humble and not let two strikes go

Bye.

            I love baseball but maybe it is time to retire from the game that I love. Im getting older I love the game but it is for the young im not as limber not as fast or strong and with the new style of pitching can’t keep up.

I think im going to retire but if the fans want me to keep playing. I will but if not I will retire. in all this game has opened my eyes but I think I will do what the fans want me to.

PS. pick up milk from the local mart and bread
