Catch

Let's play "Catching"!
all my friends would say,
during recess time
on a typical school day.

"Catching" is a game
 that others often call
tag, tips, tiggy, chasey,
or simply "it", that's all.

We use neither racquet,
nor stick, nor net, nor ball,
other than tagging
a friend to chase us all.

Running for dear life
when nearer the chaser comes,
for anyone who's tagged
the next chaser becomes.

Let's play "Catching"!
Happily we would say,
each day at recess time,
it's the only game we'd play.
