It was the day that…
I flew to the moon on dragonfly wings,
and snuggled the stars one by one.
I was a peddler for the world’s flowers, and delivered them all,
to people everywhere I could find.
I didn’t care if I looked like a fool in a hot air balloon,
waving wildly, like streamers in the hands of a child.
It was the day I felt a thousand smiles burst,
exploding from my lip creases like fireworks.
Back down to earth, and rolling in the haystacks of confetti,
I prayed for a miracle, and then saw ten.
You mean to tell me I hit my head just right and now I’m sane again?
