It all starts with a center,

16 squares around it.

Then 4 people each have

4 squares.

The game begins.

The sky is gray, cloudy,

And the air smells like rain.

Puddles of rainwater surround us.

It's cold outside,

And snow is still on the ground.

I hit the ball, it comes back, 

But I miss.

I'm out.

I go to the end of the line.

The game continues.
