Daddy, Will you get the Sun for me? I want his warm light To make my room cozy and bright. “Sun belongs to the Sky” my dear Daddy Will you get the sky for me? I love rainbow and cloudy White I care for him when he cries. “Sky belongs to the stars” Daddy Will you get the stars for me? I want hang them up my ceiling Pretend they are twinkling eyes. “Stars belong to the night” Then Daddy Will you get the night for me? I’ll color him with many dyes Then fold him into a butter fly “Night belongs to the moon” Daddy, Will you get the moon for me? I’ll polish him to the best So he shall never lose his light. “Moon belongs to dream”. My darling. Then Daddy, Will you get dream for me? I’ll put all into my magic head To make all of them true in life. “Dream belongs to poet.” Then I want to be a poet. |
