The Grove

4.

We knew about the park

Dad told us the stories

Kids died few years back

The park was off limits

Just for Larry and I

And it was outside boundaries

I didn't wanna risk it

Told my new friends no

They didn't trip for real

There was more to do

More kids lived on Grove

They usually played all together

In the big grass field

Tag, football, kickball, the works

Today it was beloved kickball

Time to make more friends

I asked to play kickball

I got put on teams

Ready to showcase my skills

The most embarrassing thing happens
