They have been through many tough years of late, with only one winning season since 1994. I was too young when the Royals won the World Series in 1985, so most of my memories are full of losing. But, I still love them. Here is a short poem in honor of my favorite sports team: The Kansas City Royals   Before the bats of ash   Before the years of pine The Royals won it before my time   Many years painful tears   Many years dreadful fears The Royals won it before my time   Playoffs played without eyes   Playoffs played nowhere mine The Royals won it before my time   Years without post-seasons   Years without real reasons The Kansas City Royals are mine So what is your favorite sports team / sports memory? poetry Gary R.
