I went and shot down a star today
Watched it zoom right past the moon
It nudged by Mars and asteroids
and it slammed straight into Neptune
I laughed as all the sparks flew down
They fell past some clouds in the sky
While beholding this amazing sight
I thought, “Who would want to die?”
Not everything is so impossible
Everyday less becomes improbable
As long as your brain functions
your imagination is unstoppable
So much has been accomplished
from so many creative minds
Airplanes cruise faster than sound
and some cars can stop on a dime
We possess instant communication,
keeping in touch with all in relation
to maybe take them on vacation
containing multiple destinations
There’s so much to still be done
Have you floated past the sun
in a brand new, shiny rocket ship
while playing with your son?
Maybe someday you’ll be viewed
in a slideshow within a room
packed with friends and family
laughing because it’s so cute
to see you live out every dream
as you smile the entire time
They can see the whole universe
as they look directly in your eyes
