Comming Home

Junior has been gone so long

that we thought he had forgot,

his loyal fans in Seattle,

but,it seems that he has not.

-

He visited Seattle, just

once in all those years, and

was very deeply touched

by our overwhelming cheers!

-

He said, "I think I owe it to

every Seattle fan,

to retire as a Mariner, here

where I grew to be a man."

-

Yes, Junior has come back.

A Man now, not "The Kid",

and , in his first game, hit a homer,

just like Griffey always did.

-

" The House That Griffey Built"

has welcomed Junior home!

His presence at Safeco Field

revives memories of the "Dome."

-

Junior now, is thirty nine

and his body's paid the price.

He relates to younger players,

giving sage advice.
