We'll sway in the wind, dance in the breeze

Will you come sway by my side
in the hanging tree
I'm a strange man but don't leave me
Come meet me and my hanging tree

Where are you where have you been
Are you coming to see me
Will you come dance in the breeze

Darling you know we both belong in the vice
So will you come to me
Come face me at my hanging tree

When will you come this summer or when leaves turn to fall
Or will you run forever keeping your back to this never admiting your fault

Where are you where could you be

All I know is you should be here
Dancing in the breeze
Swinging with me up high

The Hanging Tree

Come swing with me in my tree
We'll sway in the wind, dance in the breeze

Will you come sway by my side
in the hanging tree
I'm a strange man but don't leave me
Come meet me and my hanging tree

Where are you where have you been
Are you coming to see me
Will you come dance in the breeze

Darling you know we both belong in the vice
So will you come to me
Come face me at my hanging tree

When will you come this summer or when leaves turn to fall
Or will you run forever keeping your back to this never admiting your fault

Where are you where could you be

All I know is you should be here
Dancing in the breeze
Swinging with me up high
In My Hanging tree

An interesting read: sounds like a man very keen on a woman, a woman retaining her prudish virtue, perhaps not so perfectly. Although I'd probably avoid the tree like her, I must say you put this nicely together. Take care and God bless,

Deidra

seems to me they are both guilty, she avoids the tree
and he takes the blame and gets hung, kind of a weird
love story, ...would have been so nice had they been on
a swing in a tree instead; though at that point i think they'd wish also for such,

hugs n' love nessa

This poem is acidic softness,
and anticipatory melancholy.
Truly a fantastic write.

Cheers,

Mickey.

Wow...quite a pick up technique you have there. Lets go die together. ;-)

Or, I'm guessing that she got away and the author had to take the rap.

Very enjoyable read.

Thanks,

Tim
