childhood games
Skylar Blankenship
Walking down the street
Waste lands we call concrete
Young Miss Mary Mack
Crying from a tack
Her mother from a crack
Cinderella dressed in yellow
Two hair ribbons so mellow
Found downstairs
Far more fair
Than who play solitaire
Red Rover, Red Rover
Why is Dad pulled over
It was only lemonade
He had just gotten paid
Right there in the shade
Come take a seat
Someone is here to meet
His name is Jack
Let me help you pack
Will I be coming back
