I want to sail across the seas
A journey I’ve waited to take
In a hot air balloon, by the light of the moon
To a world that isn’t so fake
Up, into the darkened skies
Adrift, over oceans of blue
Its waters widespread, Oh! The stars overhead
Would you like to go with me, too?
We can follow the bands of color
Floating gently, with the ripples below
A rainbow of bliss, how I’ve imagined this!
Let’s see how far we can go
We won’t look back, no sir, not us
Ahead is the very best place
Yes, we’re leaving soon, next stop is the moon
As we sail away, into outer space

I can imagine reading this as a fifth grader. Back to the school room with this poem. What children could do with it! Me, too. Okay since I’m back in the classroom: “I, too.” 😀

“I could do something with it too,”” not “me could do something with it.” ?? It might have changed because of common usage. It’s been a long time since I studied Grammar. I’m sorry I started this issue, I’m worried about every word now! :D. Should the quotation mark be inside the period? Should Grammar be capitalized? Is it Grammar or Grammer? I M jo kin U, deer.

I think you’re right lol Although I’m not really sure. I have never said “I, too”, I’ve always said, “me, too”. I think the correct way is “I could, too”. But who cares LOL

🙂 Good one!
It sure is “fake” in a lot of places (and minds) around here.

I am in love with this!💛💥💫✌🦄
I will go with you!
There is nothing more that i’d want
to do then go to the moon!
We can slide down the rainbows
and kiss the stars.
Perhaps we can even visit mars!✌😉
