One Mile Tall

If you were a mile tall, your bed would sit upon a cloud.

In a baseball game, Mount Everest would be the pitcher's mound.

You would use a pool as your drinking cup.

Your campfire would be a volcano that just happened to erupt.

You would bathe yourself in Lake Champlain.

And your toy would be a full-sized plane!

If you were just one mile tall.

If you were a mile tall, the Megalodon shark would be your pet goldfish.

It would take a very large well just to make a small wish.

Two trains would be your roller skates.

And not one human would mind if you were late.

You know, just in case.

If you were a mile tall, a gigantic ditch would be your toilet.

You would use a whole hospital as your first aid kit.

You would eat 1,000 pounds of fruit a day.

And drink 200 gallons of Kool-Aid.

If you were just one mile tall.
If you were a mile tall, there would not be enough food left for all.

People would pay to get a ride on your finger.

While others would probably just choose to linger. 

However, if I were to be one mile tall… well, perhaps I would try not to be like anyone else at all.
After all, you can’t possibly be one mile tall.
