How do you like to go up in a swing, Up in the air so blue? Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing Ever a child can do! Up in the air and over the wall, Till I can see so wide, River and trees and cattle and all Over the countryside-- Till I look down on the garden green, Down on the roof so brown-- Up in the air I go flying again, Up in the air and down! author: Robert Louis Stevenson I remember memorizing this poem back in grade school and couldn't get it out of my head, so I looked it up and thought I'd print it for you to read and some of you will remember.
