High hit...
the boy sprints to first,
bat in hand.
About Masago
- Masago
- Edmonton, Alberta, Canada
- From "The Haiku Anthology" I became interested in Haiku and I have since written numerous haiku, senyru, and tanka. "Masago", my haiku pen-name, means "grain(s) of sand" in Japanese. I have recently started learning Esperanto and Japanese. A few years ago I developed a new eastern verse form which we now call 'Renhai'.

1084. Who's on First?

Link with 1083: Bat.
[I do not play much baseball these days but when I was a lad it was a daily thing during the Summer. I recall when I first started learning how to play I had a hard time remembering I was supposed to drop the bat when I succeeded in hitting the ball.]
Ha!! I can see it. :)
I played softball. Known to lug it along, too.
Bats and baseball bats - both hard to come across here... But I still remember my childhood attempts at catching a bat by sticking a broom in the air in the hope that it would run into it and drop down...!:)
it's fascinating to me
i played softball a few times
but usually it was cricket
(at which i was pretty awful) :)
enjoyed

Sounds like a sure fire way to be safe at first.
not much into baseball (it's hardly known in these areas) but this is a lovely haiku!
p.s. feel free to post the dragonfly haiku to the series :)
