You guys will be seeing a lot more poetry, and maybe an occasional short story, because I am currently taking a Creative Writing class and enjoying every minute of it.  Nathan is also really encouraging me to post some of my stuff here, so here ya go!

For this poem we were told to go somewhere different, out of the ordinary, and write about any inspiration or feelings we felt.  Friday night, after the MADACS awards for work we had the privilege of attending a free afterparty at Target Field where we got a behind the scenes tour!

Baseball Rockstar
On an empty field of green
I almost hear the crowd roar.
The crack of the bat
as my baseball takes soar.
The hotdogs smell juicy,
the kettle corn is hot.
The people are screaming
for me to give it my best shot.
My heals dig into the dirt
as I see the moon rise.
The silent echo grows loud
as the falling star flies.
I quietly whisper my wish as it falls from the sky.
Make me a baseball rockstar,
make me one of the guys.
