If I was a Chimpanzee
We’d swing about from tree to tree
And as we romped in our pyjama’s
I’d give you all the best bananas

If I was a Dolphin Blue
I’d always want to swim with you
We’d duck and dive the billowy waves
I’d show you all my favourite caves

If I was a bird on high
We’d float about the big blue sky
I’d take you underneath my wing
‘I do love you ‘ I’d softly sing

If I was the moon above
I’d shower you with stars of love
And that black hole to keep you from it
We’d hitch a ride on Haley’s Comet

If I was a birthday cake
Think of all the fun we’d make
Don’t you think it would be nice
To just sit down and eat a slice

If I was a fine red wine
I’d let you drink me when you dine
I’d get about in your sweet head
And topsy turvy we’d go to bed

This would be fun....don't you agree
But unfortunately
I'm only
Me

I don't think this is at all silly.  I found it to be a sweet and beautiful poem about someone you truly seem to love.

I agree also, this is so sweet and very romantic.  I love it, very creative!

"This would be fun...don't you agree

Not true! Any woman would be lucky to have you I am sure, just be yourself  

Take care,

Jon,

This is very cute, but not silly at all. I love children's poems.

Very sweet and romantic and heart-warming.  I'm sure which ever girl you catch will be very lucky indeed..

 I awake to a world I don't want. There is no transition for me. I am in heaven. I am in hell.
