"a Swing"

I hold the chains tight
                as I swing up to the sky
                                   with feet tucked under..

My Swing

a rope between trees
hanging down in a U shape
a rolled carpet seat:
my swing in my gran’s garden
where I’d sit shaded by elms

Premium Member I like to swing

I like to swing higher than high
Above the trees into the sky
Someday I hope my feet will zoom
Beyond the mist and touch the moon

To slash and parry your blade
And into the battle you wade
Feint, strike and advance
Though you may death chance
Your foe will still say: Well played!

Love’s spirited mood swinging from bur oak

Higher and higher towards sun

Teasing tug of french braids

I swung a magazine in a speeding blaze,
and killed five houseflies in three days.
My statistics are good, and for my money,
I'm better than Shohei Ohtunny.

Premium Member Swing Lo

my lonesome blues

A
ballad
of mood swings-
a sonnet that
sings

on invisible strings

A
ballad
of mood swings-
a picture of
verse

of togetherness lost

Premium Member Swing Low

A little girl upon a swing
Swinging to and fro
She was too young to swing up high
She was happy swinging low
As she was such a little girl
It was the safest way to go

Swing On a Chandelier

To find food would swing on a chandelier;
Nothing was found around or ever near;
Started looking;
No one cooking;
Part of diet did cause food to disappear.

Years First Swing

My white ball resting upon its tee.
I approach it this first time with glee.
Swing the club and, SMACK!
Club head hits my back.
Ball still here? Worms near by hate me!

Blue Swing

I am sitting on a blue swing 
Swinging back and forth while thinking,
Watching the peaceful surrounding 
Trees,  plants,  and grass are relaxing 
A perfect time for reflecting

Spring days, as a child,
While grasping the ropes tightly,
I soared heavenward. 
Now, decades later, I love
Gliding gently while I read.

Swing Low

Mary Catherine climbed up a tree
This was a sight to behold you see
She swung from a branch
By elastic in her pants
Showing more than she should you'll agree

Premium Member Batter-Batter Swing Hit Out the Park Home Run

Where the batter swings, if he hits the ball homerun
Why the batter hits the ball when it goes far outside the park homerun?

Premium Member Back In Full Swing

back in full swing,
the gorilla
took down the chandelier

after looking at his reflection
in crystals —
consumed them…catastrophic

the bleed
of the old lady’s scream

Premium Member The Girl on the Swing

When did I lose her
that carefree girl on the swing,
when did she go, why and where~

          in the family scrapbook
          holds a smile like sunshine.

Premium Member My Swing

My swing is where I have fun and look at everyone.
It's where I feel at peace and let my imagination increase.
It's where I look at the sun and talk to The One
Who has blessed me with many things.

Premium Member Vintage Faerie On a Swing

Vintage faerie on a swing, do you touch the sky?
If my brother pushes me, she said, he is truly fly!
Vintage faerie on a swing, how can I be free?
You have to set your sights on love and hope and glee.
