The Wind That Blew
I feel asleep
On the wind
It took me to places
High and lofty
Amongst the clouds
And cool high air
Where water is but
Droplets of mist
I touched the stars
And kissed the moon
Shook the hand of
Mr Gray in his tin can
It blew me past the station
So I knocked to say “Hello”
But no one answered
Which was strange
As all the lights were on
On it pushed me
I waved at Major Tom
But I don’t think he heard me
Gave Hal the stink eye
Than got hit by a car
Like a bug on a Tesla windscreen
Driven by a shell of a spaceman
Listening to Mysterious Universe
On its stereo
Pushed on again
I grabbed hold a boat
In it sat
An Owl and a Pussycat
With an oversized nose ring
What a strange sight it was
Flung into the wind again
I was spat at by Alien
Who wanted to use me
For a surrogate
Thought better of this
So pushed it toward Hal
Wow
What a Close Encounter
I drifted on without
A care
Above a beautiful Blue orb
I thought I caught sight
Of a Turtle behind it
But put it down to a mirage
The wind that blew
Must of blew itself out
As I drifted down
To a Silent World
That blue
Blue orb
Past wafting clouds
Or was it Swamp Gas
Gently as a deflating
Weather balloon
I feel back into
The seat I fell asleep in
I woke with such
Emotion from this journey
That it all must have been real
Or was it all
But a dream
To be fair and true
Such as life is
And the wind that blew
