Every once in a while and totally unintentionally my brain spews out a good idea.

Swing

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,
River 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!

Here’s hoping your weekend is as carefree, lovely, and blissful as swinging in the spring air wearing a white petticoat!

    Beautiful! And I’ve loved that poem by Robert Louis Stevenson since my mom used to read it to me as a child.
