swing low all you like
tis not time - i will come
when the angel calls

i played on a swing
until i was seventeen
a late late bloomer

swing was a dance rage
i missed out on-it sure looks
like really good fun

hula those hips babe
into a circular swing
drive the guys crazy

up down up and down
and nothing much in between
highs and oh so lows

ha, swinging couples
suburban bores,dreary twits
thinking they are COOL
Lovely Haiku! Thanks for visiting my brother Ku's blog http://haikubyku.com Me-Ommmm

DeleteIf I had to go with the swing, I'd choose the hula hoops.
ReplyDeleteThat's a relief. At least you did not take the last option:)
