Deep in the woods a swing hangs fromÂ
a large tree fallen across a deep cut of creek.
This is here for all to use. Please be safe. Be respectful,
written across the board that is its seat.
A mysterious elf’s gone to a lot of trouble
to delight others, walked crawled or capered
to the center of that old tree
risking life at least limbÂ
from falling onto a jumbleÂ
of big mossy rocks below
to do it, to do this for All.
Oh goodhearted Puck, I praise you!
Wonderful hero of mirth,Â
I pile blessings upon your head!
My own concocts nothing marvelousÂ
to keep the karmic balance
but I vow to do so somehowÂ
someplace sometime.
This challenge is too
marvelous to pass up.
