The swing a salvation

Flying high

Over grass and leaves and swamp

Seeing birds perched on cattails

Freedom sitting on an old wood plank

Grasping worn rope lengths secured

Wishing you could join the birds in flight

Away from all troubles

Swinging was closeness achieved.

  4. Wonderful first line! I remember that feeling well — the escape, the freedom, “a salvation” — I love the details you paint the scene with to achieve the “closeness” of nature, the wish for flight. So lovely, Cheryl.
