Attention

The boy was hopping The girl was skipping The baby was bouncing While the man was kipping The cat was pouncing The dog was dancing The music was bobbing The sound was throbbing The dormouse slept When a lion leapt As a pig walked by With a blinking eye Away he crept Somewhere else Nobody's sure where A gymnast vaulted Straight up in the air This nonsense poem Has been hard work Carelessly written By a complete and utter jerk

Congratulations Shirley, on your honorable place finish in the Jump contest. I enjoyed reading it. Thanks for entering. I found your form strong, your content playful with good jumps but the last stanza meant you stopped short of bringing all that play to a final message, so edit a little more.
