Sitting with a friend
Dangling my feet
Off the porch
Walking across the street
Knocking on their doors
Knock, knock, knock
Running to get more people to play
Saying let's meet here
Wanting to stay for a whole year
Walking to the store
Buying a fifty cent pop
Playing basketball
Popsicles from the neighbors house
And fireworks with the rest of the block
Parades on Independence Day
Lemonade for sale
Learning to ripstick
And drawing with chalk
Playing in the sprinklers
Dancing and singing
With the girls
Pretending to be moms
Walking over to stay the night
Doing swing shows
And sitting by the fire light
Face paint
And doing silly skits
All with the neighbor kids
