Such a sad thing
to look upon a swing
and not see a child playing.
No children
to run and play.
No children
to chase a ball.
No children
laughing and yelling
mommy...
It's a sad thing
to look upon this swing
and not see
a child.

Probably a little too simple, you could take the image to a whole nother level than this. Also, you need to include the image, even though I can assume which you used, it's just part of the rules.

actually I had the picture in the poem itself but it seems that when you go from a paid to free prescription they take all the pictures you use off your poems. Why I dunno. I figured the ones you had already used before the change would be safe. But mine aren't. So picture has been added.
