Romp Acrostic Ravin' inc prompt for Saturday November 9

Running,  jumping, yelling bumping

Over sisters and brothers, even others

Many a kid, with swollen eye lid took a thumping

Play so tough don't play so rough, said our mothers

what a dynamic piece. it can be read at least two ways -- on the surface, it could be a scene of a group of boys playing in the backyard. but the second line gets me wondering... is this a game, or is he talking about the rat race, the cut-throat industrial society we live in? and 'our mothers' a symbol of our deeply embedded kind nature?

[Soren]

Ern such a great interpretation and yes to both

Soren!
I love it! That was life growing up in the pre-teen fifties! What a blast we had... who needed video games when we could BE Robin Hood, Tarzan, Superman or hero cowboy-fastest-gun-in--the-west! These poor kids today, stuck on couches in small rooms... sad!

Childhood play is finely captured in this succinct poetic gem, Soren. You have captured what playing was like when we were growing up superbly. Play was rough at times but always so enjoyable. Thank you for sharing, dear Soren...
