Premium Member White Whimsical Poem
Write me a white whimsical poem With fairies unicorns and wizards May all the men be kind and strong And the grandmas never cook gizzards And the children always play outside Doors of the houses are never locked Games aren’t on phones computerized With joy playing ball and hopscotch No war crimes and no school shooter We all smile in...

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...

As young kids, we loved playing hopscotch. Taking turns we would put big boxes on the sidewalk, then jump from box to box for hours. One day we took a can of spray paint, now we have a Backyard Hopscotch. The grass boxes look great in red, it now matches dad's face....

There are children, O so sweet, Playing hopscotch in the street, Figures of worth and substance, Priceless gems of innocence. Playing is their daytime work, Chores they must not ever shirk, Reads to build literacy, Studies that steer legacy. Should be sheltered from fear, That causes bad nightmares so drear, Little minds struggling hard to find, Resolves to doubts in their minds. Pressures amongst their age...

Hopscotch With Some Scotch
"HOPSCOTCH WITH SOME SCOTCH" there are times when I wonder about everything that has happened, everything that has put me inside my current location in life. when they gave me air only to drown me, when the claws ripped my life apart, when the dirt was thrown over my casket with the lid open, everything seemed...

Hippos Playing Hopscotch
Ghostly giblets granting grinning gibbons grapefruit. But grapes were busy running down the road. Away they shouted away away. And at great speed they went down the roads. Escaping the giblets who cried out in anger at the escapees. The gibbons would not be grinning if they had no grapes for breakfast. And breakfast brought...

Hopscotch
Taking a short cut down an alley, I saw a gleam of sunshine, It had dried the pavements so children could chalk hopscotch, Small children to much older children all joined in together, Throwing their stones into the right boxes so they could play. How sweet it was to hear such happy laughter see bright cheeks, The freshness of true...
