The Good Old Days

The most enjoyable times of my elementary school days was during singing. growing up in the country side Friday afternoons  in  my large wooden school building was singing time. The voices of the children echoed as they harmonized. We sang about everything from and would  close with our favorite, "Now the  day is over:"  it was not until late  i realized that the swaying song was one way of my teacher teaching us how , the coconut tree moves.

'Swaying, swaying 

all around, I'm swaying

backward forward

side to side 

All around, I'm swaying.
