Touch

We used to cut small wood
So, lifting it would be easy for all to bear
Youth tall stood

Work done in cluster
We'd get plenty of fresh air   
Buster

We'd clutch
Then do our share
Touch

We used to cut small wood
We would get plenty of fresh air
Touch

Congratulations, Sara! I remember having fun gathering campfire wood when we went camping and chopping it up.

Sounds much like a bonding and learning session Sara. We had such sessions when I was a younger person. Congratulations on this write and your placement! :)

Why, thank you, Linda. My family moved when I was in the second grade and we had 4 fireplaces with four chimneys. We only had a fire in one of them at a time, but I would help my parents cut the wood as best I could for my age then helped my father carry the wood inside the house. I did not know it them but that was preparing me for the time when I was married with children and we had to cut wood also. Thanks for the visit. Sara K
