My mom sent this to me after cleaning out her filing cabinet. It's pretty old but I thought you might enjoy it.
Entitled "Parody"
I think that there shall never be
An umpire who can really see,
About whose head a halo shines,
Whose merit rates reporters' lines,
One who calls them as they are,
And not as I would wish by far,
A gent who learns not either way,
But lets the teams decide the play,
A man who knows the rules by heart,
And uses judgement from the start.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God should an umpire be.
Original parody from
"Ken Loeffler on Baseball"
