Please tell me a story,

Any story, any kind.

I love them all,

I think you will find.

 

I like them all,

Both short and long.

You can just say the words

Or sing me a song.

Long as a movie

Or a short nursery rhyme,

I’ll stay here and listen.

I have the time.

 

Will it be about you

When you were a child

And walked uphill both ways

To school for ten miles?

Maybe you’ll tell me

Of earths turning ‘round

And the stars and the planets

And the suns they surround.

 

Will there be a moral?

Will it teach me a lesson?

Will it be a mystery,

Always keepin’ me guessin’?

So, will it have animals?

How about a pig?

Or maybe an ant

Who wants to be big.

 

Or could it have

A bug or a lake

Or buildings or rockets

Or just one snowflake?

and more…
