Dream

Once I dreamt such a funny thing

The funniest anyone could think of

So amusing that it was startling

And I couldn't think of it enough

I was soaring in the blue sky

Using two wings that I grew

Above the clouds but not too high

Searching for what I never knew

On the way in the sky, I met

Butterflies who babbled no end

And funnily I got what they said

And then full of glee, I replied

They wanted to know a peculiar thing

How to suck nectar without spilling

I told them I do not know such a thing

And they moaned which was annoying

I wished they would stop quickly

And what a funny wish to make

For butterflies don’t moan loudly

And then I was wide awake
