Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

Chutes and Ladders

Chutes and Ladders, Monopoly
   Candyland and Bingo
       One-two-three!

Risk and Careers and
   How about Charades?
Scrabble and Password
   Venerable Word Parades!

The youthful pursuits of
   An Innocent Age 
Eating Hostess Twinkies
   And drinking Kool-Aid!

Jennifer Proxenos December 13, 2018 at 10:48 AM What a cool poem! Refreshing , really lovely! Every phase we pass in life imprints memories, my grandfather used to say to me that if he closed his eyes and thought of his whole live, it would flash by in minutes! I so enjoyed this poem Gershon. Best wishes, Jennifer. Gershon Wolf December 13, 2018 at 1:05 PM Thank you so much, Jennifer. Truth be told, I was waiting and hoping for a reaction just like yours!! It was meant to be a fun, 'refreshing' little poem. Much appreciated. :) gw
