one, two,
Buckle my boot

three, four
Shut the fort

five, six
Pickup sex

seven, eight
How we hate

nine, ten
No, not Again!

Erin, childhood keeps getting shorter and shorter, and life more and more difficult. Well done.

A new twist on an old favorite: certainly, this is not your average children's chant. But then again, maybe these days it is. Well done, Erin.

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

Sounds like sex affair by the numbers and I guess whether we swear off love a hunderd times there is always someone new just waiting in the wings or so it seems.

ERIN - GO BRAGH ...

WOW! You got me on that one Gal! When I was a kid, played pickup sticks, but don't remember any pickup SEX goin' on - was I naive? did I miss the boat?

AND - the quick, short lines remind me also of another kids game - JUMP ROPE! Although it was mostly a 'girls' game, it was a challenge, and I was pretty good at it...

Peace - Tom.
