One Inch Tall If you were only one inch tall , you'd ride a worm to school. The teardrop of a crying and would be your swimming pool. A crumb of cake would be a feast And last you seven days at least , A flea would be a frightening beast If you were one inch tall . If you were only one inch tall , you'd walk beneath the door , And it would take about a month to get down to the store . A bit of fluff would be your bed, You'd swing upon a spider's thread , And wear a thimble on your head If youwere one inch tall . you'd surf across the kitchen sink upon a stick of gum you could't hug your mama , you'd just have to hug her thumb . you'd run from people's feet in fright , To move a pen would take all night , ( This poem took fourteen years to write --- Cause I'm just one inch tall ) |
