The Swing

How do you like to go up in a swing,

Up in the air so blue?

"Oh, I do think it the plesantest thing

Ever a child can do!"

 

"Up in the air and over the wall,

Till I can see so wid,

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 got a beautifully illustrated book of Robert Louis Stevenson's peoms for Christmas when I was about 10...treasured it...still have it. Thax for sharing my favorite. As I live and breathe.

What can one say. Hey! I just like Snoopy. Although, I do miss my swing.
