The Swing at Dusk

Swinging in the twilight breeze,
I sing along with the arching trees.

Stars come twinkling past the blue,
the sun bids one and all adieu.

I long to stay and swing all night.
I sing, a bird in joyous flight.

An astronaut, i'm counting down,
to rocket back above the ground.

The chains, they squeal.
My soul it shouts, and whoops,
and yells, I let it out!

I race the sunset, never win.
My prize, an everlasting grin.
