Question
deannaart
The sad little girl
Approaches the park
She gets on the swing set
Just after dark
Up and down and up
She swings so low and high
She tries to control it
It's approaching do or die
Some men start toward her
Trying to help her slow
Yet still, up and down
And back up she'll go
Till finally they get
The little girl past
This swinging episode
Though it won't be the last
