Today my thinking

Is feeling fluffy.

Like soft little clouds,

All light and puffy.

My thoughts are consumed

By sunshine and sky.

Wish I was a bird

And knew how to fly.

Above and around

The tops of the trees.

Resting my wings while

I play on the breeze.

When swooping down fast

To catch my next meal.

I speed towards earth,

I plummet with zeal.

I'll sing my best notes,

And not miss a key.

While building my home,

A nest in your tree.

I'd dance in the rain,

I'd eat all your bugs.

I'd ask you for nothing,

Not even your hugs.

If only I could,

Fly up with the birds.

Make my dream real just

by saying the words.
