easy peasy

 

 

anastasia and drizella

my charming sisters, allowed me

to hold one end of the rope

while they played double dutch

 

and they allowed me to watch

as they played jacks

 

on my own, i would skip rope

and practice jacks

 

it was easy picking up one or two

or maybe three jacks

 

as easy as that was, it is easier

falling in love with you.

This is one of your best, Pony. It has a simple theme; it's simply constructed, and beautifully written.

I used to love playing jacks, and I became very good in my long moments of solitude. No sister to share it with. Nice ending.

I get the impression that your charming sisters were older than you... The final stanza is unexpected, but just perfect.
