Coconuts and Fish and Birds

If coconuts could grow on trees
and birds could fly
and fish could swim.
What a wonderful world we’d all enjoy,
what a wonderful world we’d all live in.

If every line I wrote could rhyme
and poetry spilled from my pen,
I’d write about the things I find
and how, and why,
and where, and when.

If everything I wrote made sense
there’d be no interest
in my words.
That’s why I write, and love the world,
and coconuts,
and fish,
and birds.

Ivor G Davies

The moment created this second, is a moment that's going to last.
It lives the full spectrum of time, the future, the present and past.

Oh, my! I cannot even imagine a world where "coconuts could grow on trees
and birds could fly
and fish could swim."

Your non-sensical poem tickled my funny 'wing'!

It appears you have a great sense of humour ~ and I like that! ~ and I enjoyed your poem!

Giving you a warm, weloming hug,

Earth Angel

Thank you all for looking at this, it was the absurdity of wishing for what already exist, that i sometimes see in life that prompted this one!
