The Babe Showed Up

Babe Ruth was told of a young boy
Who lived nearby and gravely ill.
A signed baseball would be the joy,
The young boy's dream - could Ruth fulfill?
The Babe was happy to comply,
And chose to visit the boy so
He could give to the little guy
Some signed baseballs - the boy did glow.
The Babe and the boy talked baseball,
Sharing the magic of the game.
In that time and place, best of all,
Good feel over bad overcame.

Was this done for publicity?
Who knows - a boy's dream came to be.
