I'm Swinging
by Tai Tian, Markham, Canada, Age 13

I’m swinging from the moon
Sitting on my wooden swing
Rocking to and fro
Can you see me?

I kiss the stars with my feet
And blow the moon dust down on you
Can you feel the magic?
Can you feel the love?

I’m walking on the moon
Floating on cloud nine
Flying through the sky
And I’m in love

I’m laughing
Can you hear me?
I’m dancing
Do you see me?

The stars are laughing
And the moon just smiles
And I feel so wonderfully in love
Or maybe I’m just high

My head is spinning
And I spin faster to feel the rush
I’m hanging upside down
And the blood rush is getting me off

I touch the clouds with my fingertips
And brush the dust away
Sparkles and shines and I feel so alive
I love you I scream but you can’t hear

I’m swinging and my hands burn
But the pain feels so blissful good
Maybe I’m just crazy
But the moon still smiles

I’m dancing on the clouds
And I’m singing on the top of my lungs
And I’m falling from the sky
But it just love the rush and feel so alive

I fall onto your front stoop
And you’re sitting there swinging
I’m laughing my head is spinning
And the moon just smiles
