Distant Wish

the wind lifts her off
her timber seat is stiff
swift, swift
go her feet

out of her pocket
she enjoys her treat
this day is sunny
her dress is neat

up, down
go her feet

this swing
it is safe
no others
will see her face
the swing's too swift
the wind, wind
it's her gift

in, out
go her legs
to her mind
she begs, begs
let this wind
whisk, whisk,
wish me away
to the clouds

up, down
go her feet
