I remember those days so vividly
as if they were yesterday.
Playing on a new team,
but with the same old faces,
and a new crazy coach.

Our jerseys,
blue as blueberries,
looking like a blue smudge as we ran down the turf.
Never won a game those three,
three tortuous seasons.
Some blamed it on the coach,
others on those rotten,
blue-blueberry uniforms.

This piece is about the uniforms that one my old travel soccer teams had.
