'Impossible Tag'
When you say yes to play tag with kids
Fantastic Friday my friends!
How has your week been? I hope stellar!
Today’s poem comes from 1/31st and the evening I took my daughter to enjoy her cousins’ company for her uncle and his daughter’s birthday dinner at a brewery’s restaurant and beer garden.
Neither my daughter nor myself had any alcohol, in case you were wondering! I mean she’s 7. We have boundaries. Haha.
As for me, I don’t desire to drink at all anymore, mainly because I looked at ingredient lists and most alcoholic drinks of any kind have GMO ingredients, as well as things I want to cut out in their entirety if at all possible.
Regardless of all of that as it’s not why I’m here, the beer garden had a little area with a small maze space to run around in and my daughter asked me to play tag with her and two of her cousins (both girls), and then more sets of girls from friends of her cousins’ family.
Let me tell you what though…tag is WAY difficult when you have to run after a gaggle of young ladies and who TEAM up to tag you back. I needed a much larger space to avoid them for sure. Still fun.
Both of my daughters’ uncles joined at different times and her Fun Fun a couple of times, so I wasn’t the only one. Mostly anyways.
Impossible Tag
Crazy Cold!
At a Brewery’s Beergarden
For my daughter to play
With her cousins,
Multiple January Birthdays
And the depth of play
In their maze
Becomes a difficult task
With a gaggle of girls
All on one side
Of Impossible Tag
For I cannot get away
When they team up~
Run! Run! Sharp turns!
Don’t knock out
Any random kids!
Oy! Impossible Tag indeed…
~Zzzzz~
