As you pushed him high, he squealed for joy.

His little fingers wrapped tight around the chains.

Hair fluttering in the wind.

Stomach in knots as he reached the peak

and then

dropping as he plummeted back again.

The chains creaking and groaning from the twisting and turning.

Pushing the limits, testing the boundaries.

At just the moment when he came close to the pole,

you pushed him back up.

At just the moment when he was at the lowest,

when he felt like stopping,

you jumped in an pushed him back up.
