Chillinois, You Put Me In a Frozen State


Gene J. Puskar - AP

There's a pall on the breeze in the air
Though there's ball, for the freeze they prepare
In Chicago the fans
make their long winter plans
as they fall on their knees in despair

Chicago Cubs' Alfonso Soriano hangs his head. This limerick is from Bardball, the site of daily baseball poetry managed by James Finn Garner and Stuart Shea. James put the title on ice. Barball is where I post my limericks when I'm feeling blue about Cubbie blue, which is almost always.
