Backyard Hopscotch

Backyard Hopscotch is my thing, my favorite backyard game, And today I was inducted in the BH hall of fame, Nobody else is quite as good as me I tell myself, As I grab my chalk and hopscotch rocks from off the hopscotch shelf. I draw squares on the ground and throw a stone to number two Then hop from square to square like a demented kangaroo Some people say I'm crazy as I play it every day, However, it's a game I always win whene'er I play. I'm always by myself and so I never ever lose, But soon I'll have to stop as I've worn big holes in my shoes.

I guess it must be perfectly fine for you to hop like a demented kangaroo especially since your in the BH hall of fame, and you win every time you play. Congrats on your win in my contest.
