How about a poem, about little league baseball?
Little League
Hey battah battah
Watcha gonna say
they play
baseball
every Saturday
Hey battah battah
Someone’s at bat
the pitcher eyes
the catcher
wearing backwards hat
Hey battah battah
Lets watch and wait
batter at home plate
bangs bat, swings at
dreams that: too late
Hey battah battah hey battah battah
Better not bluff
Swing, fling, dings
edge of the ball,
not at all enough
Steerike two batter batter
Pitcher looks at her
nods once, nods again
I’m gonna send
There it goes, watch it. BAM!

But who's on first?
I like this - kinda gets to that crescendo - the strikes the parents booing and hissing (we have mean little league here) and then the kid finally hits! And then misses first base. Haha.

Light, Joyful, fun read!
It says that a poet may write on any subject, and be involved in any event, especially those linked to parent-child relationship.
Some (including myself) 'd say it's a song, or sounds more like it. For me, I've always thought that a song is a poem that can be sung-- like this piece.

I am eminently qualified to comment since I spent 7 years behind the plate receiving and often chasing the pitcher's offerings! My refrain would be: Hey battah battah, how'll you going to duck!

Liked it - how you held off the "her" - until the last stanza. Yeah - for the little ladies ♥

Girls play baseball, not just softball, glad you showed that with the batter, her.
