It's a rainy, miserable day here, which is playing havoc on my sinuses and giving me a nasty headache that will probably last all day, so....my ponderings are not that deep. In fact, I think I'm going to "cheat" and rely on videos.
Enjoy!
| 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, | 5 |
| 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— | 10 |
| Up in the air I go flying again, | |
| Up in the air and down! ~ Robert Louis Stevenson |

That last video made me hurt. DejaView - been there - done that.
OUCH.... hope you are feeling better soon and thanks for pondering with me!
YOWCH indeed! But I loved the Robert Louis Stevenson poem at the end, I remember it now from the nursery rhyme books of my childhood - long, long ago!
not cheating: since the swing dancing and rope swing fails videos Were Awesome!!
and great minds think alike.. I did the poem too. :)
I immediately went to the song "Swingin'", and the porch swing with my Grampy...then I posted about a very fond memory. I hope you will check it out!
