    DIRECTIONS: Read the poem. Then answer the questions. How do you like to go up in a swing,
    Up in the air so blue?
    1. What is this poem about? Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing
    Ever a child can do!
    Up in the air and over the wall,
    Till I can see so wide,
    River and trees and cattle and all Over the
    countryside--
    2. What is the speaker's tone?
    Till I look down on the garden green, Down
    on the roof so brown
    Up in the air I go flying again,
    3. What is the mood of the poem?
    Up in the air and down!

    4. Explain your answer using textual evidence.


    - Robert Louis Stevenson
