" How crazy it would be
if the moon did spin
and the earth stood still
and the sun went dim!
How absolutely ludicrous
if snakes could walk
and kids could fly
and mimes did talk!
How silly it would be
if the nights were tan
and the mornings green
and the sun cyan!
How totally ridiculous
if horses chirped
and spiders sang
and ladies burped!
How shocking it would be
if the dragons ruled
and the knights were daft
but the fish were schooled!
How utterly preposterous
if rain were dry
and snowflakes warm
and real men cried!
I love to just imagine
all the lows as heights,
and the salty, sweet,
and our lefts as rights.
Perhaps it is incredible
and off the hook,
but it all makes sense
in a storybook! "
