Pinwheels spin with colors that sparkle
in the skies.
Around they go, up and down, by and by.
Children running as fast as they can, holding
their pinwheels high in the sky.
Oh, to be young again, to feel the air rush
by as I run with the pinwheel in my hand.
Watching the colors change as they spin.
Feeling the sun on my face, freedom of
running place to place.
Pinwheel spin as fast as you can, for time
is short, and the winds of change will come
about.
Children will soon grow up, and leave their
childhood dreams behind.
Pinwheel, with you arches bowed, catch the
wind and fly away home, where timeless toys
are there, and children who never got to grow
up, will run in the wind with you in their tiny
hands, spin with colors that sparkle in the sky
forever catching the wind by and by.

I was just looking at pinwheels today with my nephew! He didn't come home with one, he opted for the bug cage and the loud boat horn, both from the Dollar Store! I remember playing with pinwheels one Spring day with all my cousins at my Nana's. Great memories!
I do NOT know how to hang a large mirror! I wish I did. You could Google it for some ideas. I want to see it if you hand any of them up!
Thanks Sares..I'll google for sure!
Wasn't there a pinwheel song? For some reason I have a song stuck in my head about a pinwheel that maybe was on Nickelodeon?
Pinwheel is every little kid's favorite! I like it too!
