Seminole Girls Fastpitch Softball Association

Just a Little Girl

She stands alone at home plate with her heart pounding fast.  The bases are

loaded, the die has been cast.  Mom and Dad cannot help her, she

stands all alone, a hit at this moment would send her team home.  The

ball nears the plate, she swings and misses, there's a groan from the

crowd with some boos and hisses.  A thoughtless voice cries, "Strike

out the bum!"  Tears fill her eyes, the game's no longer fun.

Remember, she is just a little girl who stands all alone.  So open your

heart and give her a break, for it's moments like this a woman you can

make.  Keep this in mind when you hear someone forget, she's just a

little girl and not a woman yet.
