I have to admit you spread yoyurself all over with this Haiku and well you did quite an extra ordinary job too. any ways you have it all a little kid basiclaly playing baseball say for sake of argument at a Wigley like field and well you have the say hole in the fece behind the trash area which the kid sneeked into and of course this was all about what a kid did while playing ball on his own playground. any ways maybe I was all over the palce but tis where I went with this haiku. any ways a very nice Haiku and keep up the good work n good luck
