Marshmallow cotton candy clouds drift on by In the vast azure skies so blue I dream each night that I can fly And I’m looking down on you With gossamer wings I’d float on the breeze Whilst the man in the moon winks an eye I’d land on the top of lollipop trees Oh I love looking down from the sky I can see Rudolph and the other reindeer graze On clouds of carrots and sweet mince pies Santa would tell me of his pre Christmas days Before he goes flying high in the skies Snow coloured storks have babies to deliver Now I’ve seen them here so I know it’s true Babies are wrapped in blankets so they don’t shiver Before they are delivered down on earth to you I eat pie in the sky from a rainbow coloured dish The silver lining of clouds keep me warm Everywhere the eye can see is filled with flying fish And pink fluffy pigs fly around in a swarm Contest: Imagination Sponsor: Shadow Hamilton 01~30~16
