Daylight and children
clap their hands with mirth and glee
as clocks jump forward happilyswinging on a tree
children play wild and free
daylight waits for the evening meal

Oh yes! Perfect for this image…that joy as a young one when the daylight stretches on and we can continue to play outside. Complete exuberance that shows itself in swinging higher and higher and then, at the top of the arc, letting go and flying!!! And not hearing that call from mom or dad, “Supper!!” until an hour later as the sun starts to go down. Love your take on this prompt!

Wonderful portrait of a portrait. It reminded me of how I could never swing high enough.

This makes me happy. I used to (and still do) love to swing. This also makes me sad. Very rare thing now, to see children playing outside in the sun. 🙁
