Stack a block upon a block, you need no reason why
Keep on stacking blocks on blocks until they reach the sky
When they reach above your head they’ll seem so very high
But if they topple over there will be no need to cry

Just stack a block upon a block to have another go
But stack them up more carefully and stack them up real slow
And when you stack them higher than they were before, you’ll know
That every time you try again your confidence will grow

So stack a block upon a block, make sure it won’t collapse
Don’t use cement nor sticky tape, don’t use securing straps
Just keep on stacking blocks on blocks and if there’s no mishaps
This time they may well reach the sky, perhaps, perhaps, perhaps

I remember enjoying your poem, Paula. To be honest, I thought I was go. A have to sit this one out, but I had a better look at the pictures and this kinda leapt into my head. Glad you enjoyed. Terry

Thanks, Tom. Glad I came up with something, cos I had been devoid of ideas for this one until now.
