Reliving my childhood - Part 1
Today Betu was singing the lines which took me to 20 yrs in the past. It reminded me of the game we used to play.
The lines were -
"I wrote a letter to my father
On the way I dropped it.
Someone came and picked it up
And put it in his pocket...pocket...pocket!"
Now you remember the game?
For those who couldn't, it was a game played in group where 2 people would stand face to face, join hands in the shape of a bridge and others would take a circle around them and go under the bridge. And these two people would trap a person after saying the word "pocket" third time. And then that 'captured' person would go and stand behind any of these two players. And it would end with a tug of war.
Now you remember?
Singing this along with my son after so many years felt so very wonderful. I know I will have many more of such moments and that's why I have made a series out of it :)
Any similar incident you can think of?
~~ Keep Smiling! ~~
