texture "dreams"
by kim klassen
I was never good at hide
& seek because I'd always make enough noise
so my friends would be sure to find me.
I don't have anyone to play those games with any more,
but now & then I make enough noise
just in case someone is still looking & hasn't found me yet.

week sixteen.
{childhood games}
so many wonderful childhood games.
yes, there were box games.
but the fun ones were.
ghost in the graveyard.
rolling the round metal wheel with a stick.
stepping on cans to make noisy shoes.
playing house in the corn crib with real dishes.
playing marbles.
stringing buttons.
the list goes on and on for this country girl.
ah, childhood memories.
great prompt this week.
just BE.
robin.
Thanks for the nice photo and good thoughtful words, of you and of Story People.

It is for me a good start of the day to visit your blog :-)
Have a nice day

ReplyDeletethough some of the activities mentioned i did not experience, just the thought of being more free those days without the aid of tech gadgets makes me smile. it was fun, fun, fun those days.
