Clyde was the playground basketball king.
He loved wearing his Converse Chuck Taylor All Stars tennis shoes and cuffed blue jeans.
He shot the jump shot with pure wrist.
The cheers from the girls were for him heavenly bliss.
Coaches tried to get him to play on the school basketball teams.
But he stayed with the playground where he got all of his steam.
