There was a day
Mark Pearce (c) 2009

There was a day
When the sun didn’t sing
And the Earth didn’t turn
And the stars didn’t blink

And the moon didn’t wax
And seas didn’t wane
And the frogs didn’t jump
And the bees cause pain

And the trees didn’t wave
And the grasses didn’t flutter
And the churned up milk
Turn to farm fresh butter

And the turtles didn’t poke
And the snakes didn’t slither
And the chickens didn’t cluck
And the bobcats nither

And the horses didn’t clomp
And the dogs didn’t bark
And the flowers didn’t grow
Around the park

And the whales didn’t spout
And the monkeys didn’t play
The arachnids didn’t
Creep all day.

But today we have ‘bout
All these things
The Earth does turn
The sunshine sings

The moon and stars
Dance through the night
I love this world.
It’s just all right.
