Tempted.........

There’s an old rope swing
Hanging off a branch
Under the canopy
And across the way

I can somehow hear the laughter
Of the children’s chance
As it too and fro’s
Within their play

The tired old tyre
Has done a mile or too
The rope frayed
But still strong

It hangs there quietly
Calling my name
Enticing me
Encouraging me to belong .....

Nostalgic kind of poem
Brings images so vivid and true
Kind of aged and blue
This one is so very beautiful
