Florian - Sitting
The day when the world turned upside down: when a frown became a smile and a smile became a frown.
When the mice chased the cats the cats chased the dogs. The dogs laughed out loud at the pink and yellow frogs.
When you went to bed in the daytime and got up at night. When birds caught the school bus and the cows took flight.
When the moon came out in the middle of the day and all of the ocean's fish rolled around in the hay.
When the children ruled the world and ice cream was for free and the elephants shrank to the size of a flea.
When the grass rained lollipops up to the sky. When you wanted to laugh but could only cry.
When magic beans were real and giants very small, you would eat spiders legs so you could creep up the wall.
This all happened when the world turned upside down after I went to bed with a smile - not a frown.
