To Swing

I recently saw the movie, Extremely Loud and Uncomfortably Close,

and there is a scene where the main character

     discovers the joy of what it feels like . . . 

to SWING.

Do you remember what it feels like?

That feeling of weightlessness and flying.

No worries or thinking about the time. 

Anything can happen,

     and we can be anyone we want to be.    

Challenging ourselves to swing higher;

     releasing our hands from the chains;

surrendering our bodies into the sky.  

Soaring, soaring, soaring

                                 . . . . . . landing.      

Then, right back up again. 

  

It's been a while.  

Maybe I should go for a swing.
