Most Valuable Player

He met this girl on a hot July day
Had bad intentions, but fell in love....or so he say
She was new to the game of love
Something like a rookie draft pick
He told her everything she wanted to hear
She figured he just wanted to hit
A rookie to the game but the mind of a vet
She made him wait and wait
Hoping he'd forget
Or maybe he'd leave because she wasn't easy like the rest
Little did she know he was up for the test
He showed the rookie a world she'd never seen
And it wasn't long before the rookie was starting on the team
Head over heels. Blinded by bliss.
This game would soon have a tragic twist...
Flag on the play! Unnecessary roughness of the heart
Took the rookie out of the game. She couldn't play the part.
She got hurt and eventually traded.
Left not only the team, but the league. It was love she hated.
For so long he was her king.
But playing for this team, she would never win a ring.
Many teams wanted her but she retired from the game
But one thing she knew....
She would always be in his Hall of Fame.


Teams are made up of numerous "players". We are often attracted to the ones who have the spotlight. The "MVP". A leader. Someone we find appealing. He/she has their head on straight.....or so we think. We don't take notice to those players that play significant roles but go unnoticed. Or those that are on the bench perfecting their craft so they can be better.

No. That's not what we want. We want the "most valuable PLAYER"....

I'll be in that Hall of Fame but I'm back in the league. This time I'm getting a ring ;-)
