Chapels…Churches…Cathedrals
The Cathedrals of Baseball are open
For business across the nation.
The lesser houses of worship
Have been open for some time now.
The high school chapels,
Kirsch-Rooney,
Farley Field,
To name two in New Orleans.
Are active and filled with congregants.
Some of the churches are open,
Built for the college crowds
Holding nine-inning revivals,
Giving the lesser seminarians
A chance to discern
Their vocations.
But today, the Cathedrals
Opened their gates,
As the faithful filed into the
Pews, breaking bread,
And the occasional donut-hamburger.
The Boys of Summer are back.

In these churches, I genuflect. In these churches, I worship. I these churches, I am saved.
