Jeff Connelly Poet I do not know?

20 20

my vision 
is fine
i can see 
the lines
defined 
by the chalk
in my hand
and the cracks 
in the sidewalk

i also have
the rocks
that when
put on 
the spots
make me
hopscotch
dance but
never

to
step
on my
mother's

back

Sandra Adams December 30, 2019 at 5:37 AM this took me back to my childhood, my sister and i were just talking about hopscotch the other day... we sure grew up in simpler times... enjoyed this one :) Jeff Connelly December 30, 2019 at 6:47 AM I always kept a bag of jacks with me. My son surprised me awhile back when he came in and I asked what they were up to. He replied, "playing kick the can" WOW I was amazed lol. Thank you Sandra.
