 * I am Poem **
 * I AM …a hitter **
 * I WONDER …what the next pitch will be **
 * I HEAR …the crowd yelling **
 * I SEE …the pitchers wind up **

 * I TOUCH …the Smooth wood of the bat **
 * I WORRY …that the pitcher might throw a screwball **

 * I AM … A hitter **
 * I UNDERSTAND …how the ball spins **
 * I SAY …what I think **
 * I DREAM …of playing in the MLB **
 * I HOPE …for sucsess **
