Puddle jumping................

puddle Little boys in puddles jumping........... Through the woods and fields go thumping............ Noise and chaos follow them............. Kick up stones and chase the hen.............. Through the yard and to the hay........ Climb the stack and jump and play............ Litte boys are wild and tough............. We find their play a little rough............ They soon grow up with other toys...... But even big boys make a noise............. Trade toy cars for motor bikes............. Not for them the quiet hikes...... Small boys, big boys much the same........... Not sure if they are ever tame. JKS 2012 jumping-in-puddles (The pictures were found on the web) The followings are drawings I have just done. I am not really happy with them but will put them out anyway This was the first effort 102_0444 By putting them here I can see what I did wrong. 102_0449 I am not sure I can make corrections now it's coloured.........I used coloured pencils. 102_0448 I am linking with Paint Party Friday........
I am linking this post with Make A Scene Monday at Alderberry Hill

Great pictures I did it as a kid on the way home from school, not on the way to school who wants to sit in wet clothes until you dried.

Beautiful words and great shoots. Kids are precious and naive. They keep us smile.

Well, to my untrained eye, the pictures look just great. I wish I could draw and paint well - fine at line drawings but that's about it.

Lovely words too. Keep writing and keep drawing!

Love the drawing. You captured the innocence of the boy splashing about. I used colored pencils for awhile then went to watercolors in my journals. Both are fun. HPPF
