I Forgot How To Fall

Once upon a time I forgot how to fall.

There were no boundaries for me, not even a wall.

One might ask, “how did you forget how to fall?”

My answer is, “you first need to crawl!

Crawl in your imagination, that’s how you not fall.

Cause your imagination’s out there, waiting for a call.

You can be in a palace, up on the windowed hall.

And you can jump from that spot, and you’ll never fall.

You can talk to the trees, waving so tall.

You can ask them their day, you can ask them all.

There are many good uses that you can enthral.

And one of them’s learning, how not to fall”.
