Hoory Hooray

The blue is the sky.

As I wake up and stretch my arms

and say that I love you.

 

The green is the grass.

That i run through with my toes

chasing the flutter byes

as they flutter by and land upon your nose

 

The pink is in my tongue

that goes round and round inside my mouth

as I try to spell mississippi

while standing on my head

 

Yelllow is in the sunlight

shining in your eyes

as you sit and laugh as I run about

flapping my hands and trying to fly.

 

Black is the night

You tuck me in and say goodnight

and before you leave, before the day ends

You turn and say “I love you”
