Can you imagine
how mesmerized and
inspir’d over time
this human being
renders her grandpa?
How can it now be,
at seven years and
an added six months,
with but half a heart?
She is an ath’lete!
At shortstop no less,
eagerly waiting
and ready to grasp
whatever may come
toward her domain.
Bless all the children
she here represents,
whose vitalities
are not diminished
by limitations.
And bless us, O Lord,
far less limited,
who all too often
are full of complaints
and much less hearty.
Place us at shortstop
and ready us there
to grasp eagerly
whatever may come
toward our domain.
