"In the Swing" Silhouette and Poem

Higher! Higher!

Up I go!

Now the spire,

Which I know,

Goes to where

The sky is blue;

Seems no higher

Than I to you.

High! High!

See me fly!

Lower, lower,

Down I swing;

Slower, slower, 

On the wing,

Gently sailing

To and fro,

Almost failing

Now to go.

Low, low,

Slow, slow.
