Romp (acrostic)

sorenbarrett

Running,  jumping, yelling bumping
Over sisters and brothers, even others
Many a kid, with swollen eye lid took a thumping
Play so tough don't play so rough, said our mothers

                    So very true soren, you rarely saw lads without scabs on their knees when I was a kid.
