The Sun  
at the middle  
of the merry-go-round  
and merrily go we  
around around  
around  
The Sun  
such fun  
We swing  
we swing  
at the end of a string  

Were there ever other swingers?  
Did they let go  
fly off to play  
with other stars  
Suns of their own domains?  
Family of the one we know.

The Sun at the middle of the merry-go-round  
Is the earth now letting go?  
I rise  
I hang  
onto a cloud  
so white and light  
The speed of flight increases  
round and round and round I go
and where I stop  
I do not know  

Should I let go?
Nothing but tea, I swear. :)

Inspired in an odd way by Cinquain Echo [link] by :icononyxphoenix:

I don't know what the rules of cinquain form are and I almost never write in forms anyway. Formless, as you can see, and I have no idea where my mind is today, even if it still exists.
