“It’s a child’s game, but so much fun” Gun Roswell
Hopscotch
One, two, four
Trying to score
The lines to ignore
Then get back for
To do some more
Hopping, bouncing
The numbers announcing
Going forward, then backing
This game is not fun lacking
And my pals the game are tracking
It’s a child’s play
But for me just the same
As this game
Is so much fun I want to stay
The whole afternoon today

“Childhood means simplicity.
Look at the world with the child’s eye –
it is very beautiful.”
Kailash Satyarthi
Universal Children’s Day
The world would be total shit
Without a child in it
No laughter, nor giggles
No mystery nor riddles
Doing all kinds of silly things
With her dog and tiny wings
Future wide and open
For them you are hoping
Joy and fortune
Without worry or torture
Today’s little children
Tomorrow’s gems and pearls
Let them play
Let them stay
Little children
A while longer

“I now find magic in the mundane. I’m also more creative – better able to look beyond the obvious and come up with new story angles” Deborah Norville
Child’s Play for Mundane Monday
“Look at this drawing pretty”
She stated quite wittily
“I made it for you
To make a copy or a few,
Because I knew
You needed your passport to renew”
She smiled quite happily
Of her clever execution
To my problem’s solution
