The Swing

The men folk made a tire swing last Sunday so that Olivia could enjoy it while she was here!

 The Swing

by Robert Louis Stevenson

How do you like to go up in a swing,

Up in the air so blue?

Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing

Ever a child can do!

Up in the air and over the wall,

Till I can see so wide,

Rivers and trees and cattle and all

Over the countryside ---

Till I look down on the garden green,

Down on the roof so brown ---

Up in the air I go flying again,

Up in the air and down!

(I enjoyed it a wee bit myself :-})
