Swinging Away In the Sun

A tire swing
A water hole
A hound named Blue

A summer day
Throw off the shirt
Kick off each shoe

I am eight
The perfect age
To rig up my own tire swing

But Uncle Pete 
Came down to help
And here I be

A grateful boy
Swinging away in the sun
Nothing ever again has been this kind of fun!
