Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Moment for Mets

'Twas a 50 year (count'em) drought,
The New York Mets no no hit streak.
Part of what baseball's all about -
One rut or tuther to feel bleak.
But then two thousand twelve, June first,
Johan Santana pitched to fate,
And from Mets fans, tears of joy burst -
A Mets no hitter on that date.
Of course the ump made a bad call,
Sixth inning called a base hit foul.
Replay showed it a fair ground ball,
But no vile words did Mets fans howl.

Droughts come and go and always will,
But feel one ended - what a thrill.
