Jack and Jill

.

          thud
          thud
          thud

         crack
          thud
          thud
          bang
           ow
          slide

         smack
          bang
          thud
            ow

   down the hill
  into the rocks
against the trees
        we fall

Good job. I wondered how you could write about such a common nursery rhyme effectively, but you did it. Elton Camp

Who has the healing in his wings to pick th ebroken pieces up ... after the situation ... each poem you write is a leverage of thought, and a temptation.
