2 Growing up in Northfield, we had two trees in the

6 fixing a pulley system with a rope and a round seat.
7 And then he took a — probably a one-story ladder,
8 leaned it up against the higher tree, and you could
9 take the swing up with you, put the round swing
10 between your legs and glide down between the trees.
11 And so that was our own little amusement park in the
12 front yard
13 Anyone ever get hurt?
14 No. No one ever got hurt surprisingly. We even got
15 creative in the fall. We would rake the leaves and
16 then burn them. And then of course you’d go over

And goes down burning into the gulf below,
No voice in nature is heard to cry aloud
At what has happened. Birds, at least must know
It is the change to darkness in the sky.
Murmuring something quiet in her breast,

Or overtaken too far from his nest,
