JUST A LITTLE BOY He stands at the plate with heart pounding fast. The bases are loaded; the die has been cast. Mom and dad cannot help him, he stands all alone. A hit at this moment would send the team home. The ball meets the plate; he swings and he misses. There's a groan from the crowd, with some boos and some hisses. A thoughtless voice cries: STRIKE OUT THE BUM! Tears fill his eyes; the game's no longer fun. So open your heart and give him a break. For it's moments like this, a man you can make. Keep this in mind when you hear someone forget He's just a little boy and not a man yet! Josh's Index Bear Since 22 Jul 98
