Be An Allstar 7/2/2022

Curve balls
And fast balls
Life throws at you
Are lessons to learn
On how to react to them.

Some allow you to
Stop and ponder
And others will
Make you cry.

Being mindful
Will help you
See the signal
Of any spinning ball
Headed your way.

Learn to be
An allstar in life
Getting your game on
No matter
What types of hard balls
Life throws
Your way.

Dig deep
Within the Soul
Knowing it’s all about
Standing and facing
What’s coming your way.

Sometimes striking out
In order to score
A homerun
At a later date
“Tis all part
Of the game of life.
