It Swings!

Look where I am

There's no trace of sweat up here

And the wind, it's killing me.. yeah it's that cool!

I'm walking..

on the fresh green grass with crystal like dew drops on it

It's leading me to my all time passion- the swing!

I'm swinging away to glory in this cold winter evening

what not my eyes can relish upon

the trees and bushes are colourful with freshly bud flowers

the fragrance is telling me it's heaven

the melodious birds are chirping a beautiful tune,

to which I wanna sing along even if I'm not perfectly tuned

this place is nothing but a miracle

oh I don't wanna leave from here

but

I open my eyes and find myself in the park down my building

in the same old 'hot' city where they say it's a waste of time to swing.

but

I put on my headphones,

turn on the music,

and set my feet free from the ground

and I stare at my feet going up and back as the swing moves in full swing!!
