Her kite strings are caught on a gill She’s refusing to let go Grains of sand have formed to hands And are trying to hold her toe                                 No dad it’s not that                                 It’s an airship bound for Mars                                With hands out the window                                Waving king-sized candy bars No son surely that’s not right It must be a school bus full of children With coloring pages Half-way to all the way filled in                                        Dad don’t be silly                                 It’s Harold and his Purple Crayon                                 But he fell out of his balloon                                 And is trying to draw the ground Oh no, will he make it                                  I don’t know I do hope he will                                  I do think so That’s good son I’d hate to see him fall                                 I know dad                                 Wouldn’t we all But you’re sure those aren’t whales Floating through the skies Because it sure does look like it                                 Dad!  Whales aren’t that size                                 Besides even if they were                                 What would whales be doing up there Well, I mean they are just clouds                                 Not if you try real hard, I swear                                                      Silly little humans there on the sand                                                       Humphry, surely they’re little bugs
