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!

sweet. :)
That picture was from the day she "learned herself how to swing". She was so proud!
I've recited that poem so many times to my children that now whenever I see a child on a swing those words are in my thoughts. What an amazing connection!
I love the picture and poem together. It is PERFECT, sell it and make your millions or at least enough money to buy a house in the West. -liz
