Hop-Scotch

   Hop ahead, hop behind
   Hop sideways, perhaps rewind

   Matters only what you find
   in the melody of your mind

Ha, ha. When I was a little boy - not so long ago - I took the hops out of the scotch, put them in some beer, and then I had two drinks for the price of one. Yeah, sure I did. I am SUCH a liar. :) gw

It's just a game, you can be lame. It's just for fun. BB

Like your take on that classic; from structure to ramble. Makes sense to me.

Good. You're a barometer for me to judge things by, David. You know, kind of like a weathervane without the rooster on top. ~ Chanticleer
