A baseball haiku by Heather Ober
March 27, 2021
There doesn’t seem to be a title to this one — it is listed merely as “Haiku 5.” All the same, I found this haiku very relatable, even in its brevity. I’m sure most kids who grow up playing ball have this experience at some point in their lives.

an old baseball
soars across blue sky–
broken glass
