I swing from the monkey bars,
From arm to arm, from mind to heart;
Touch base and then let go,
Lose grip and then regain my hold.
Fall down, scrape my knee,
I’m alive because I bleed,
Swinging high scarily, for
I’ll go flying as soon as I let go.
Secrets in the sand,
Things that should be covered, and
Castles blow away,
I can make nothing that stays.
Sometimes on the seesaw
You can’t get off the ground,
But be careful before you start
Throwing your weight around.
Sometimes you have a friend,
Sometimes you play alone,
And the older you are the harder it is
To find your way back home
