Moon

Did I see the full moon dancing

Way up in the sky

With a face of custard creams

And cherry blossom pie?

Did I see the stars were just

A billion flashing lights

Floating on a plate of dust

Way out in the night?

Did I see the earth was spinning

Are things as they seem

Or am I still asleep in bed

And is it all a dream?

The Grief

Little Mandy had a problem
She was such a thief
That they cut off both her hands
And sold her to The Grief

The Grief his hair is black as night
His eyes are white as death
And when he holds you in his arms
He steals away your breath

Oh little children everywhere
Beware of what you do
If you take what is not yours
The Grief will come for you

Choose.

Choose your thoughts
Most carefully,
Because they are
Who you will be.

The Birdman.

The Birdman thinks he is a bird
The Kiteman is a kite
Together they go flying round
Beneath the stars at night.

And sometimes when they want some fun
They fly up to the moon
And frighten all the children there
By bursting a balloon.

Then when they come back down to earth
The Kiteman goes to bed
But the Birdman never really sleeps
So builds a nest instead.

Space.

I dream that I was out in space,
And everything was dark
And everything was silent
And there was not a single spark.

Then suddenly a little face
With eyes that seemed to glow.
Came floating right in front of me
And smiled and said "Hello."

And then he asked me for my name
So I said "Mr Peek"
And that's when he began to laugh
So much he could not speak.

Then when he'd calmed down just a bit
I said "Well what's the joke."
But as he started answering
I suddenly awoke.

The Little Dragon.

The tiny little dragon
Is feeling very sad,
Oh why, Oh why,
Oh why, Oh why,
Is he feeling so bad?

I wonder if he's lost his coat?
Or has he got a poorly throat?
Perhaps he's got an itchy nose?
Or itchy feet and itchy toes?
Has he lost his favourite shoes?
Has he heard some nasty news?
Is he scared of night and dark?
Has he heard a big dog bark?
Did he get into a fight?
Or lose his teddies in the night?

Oh what, Oh what, Oh what is wrong?
Has he heard a sad, sad song?
All this weeping's just too sad?
Can we somehow make him glad?

The dragon cries so much and sighs
And makes big tears come to my eyes
Why the moaning? Why the groaning?
Tiny dragon, tell me do,
What in the world is wrong with you?

Oh can't you see? Oh can't you see?
The little dragon said to me.
Oh can't you look? Oh can't you find?
Oh can't you see? Oh are you blind?

Last night as I lay in my bed
I got a terribly sneezy head.
And this is why I sit and wail
Because when I sneezed...
I burnt my tail!

You

If all you think about is you
Then you just don't have a clue
What the world is all about
And you may never work it out.
