ok, all i can think is baseball, lol, with the title...and somehow, it still fits the piece! though 63 and 71 were both bad years for the yankees. special things etched upon our soul...like nice poems that take us somewhere else. superb!

Great poetry... It's too bad some tread down... the gems they don't see. Yes, please respect... and do not hurt field of dreams. Once again, great write... and hey, at least you know what a homerun is (Have to say, that's one of the interesting things about an intl. site... learn a lot about other countries, cultures). Hey, Gashly... any love for the LA Dodgers (I knew Orel Hershiser personally, if you're not too young to know who that is. Also Steve Howe, who was Orel's teammate on the Dodgers minor league team. He last played for the Yankees, but Rookie of the Year back in the day for LA. Both were pitchers btw)

cat, OF COURSE i know them. i remember hershiser from his Indians days, though, and now on ESPN. and howe, a yankee of course, albeit, a very tragic one, i mean, banned for life because he had a drinking problem? thank the stars he won his appeal! and i give props to The Boss (miss ya, George!) for keeping him on the payroll as long as he did, that man was all about redemption. thanks for sharing your story, i appreciate it, and serpico, sorry to hijack your comments...the poem is still just as lovely as it was a few hours ago!
