If I were Otherwise
joyce l brisley
If I were very, very tall, as tall as I could be,
I'd play with all the little birds up in the topmost tree;
I'd jump right over houses and think nothing of a wall
If I were very, very, very, very tall
If I were very small, as small as I could be
I'd run among the blades of grass where you could scarcely see,
I'd play with ants and beetles and I know I'd love them all,
If I were very, very, very, very small!
