if i had a yellow dress,
i would wear it all summer long
and i would run free in my gown of sunshine,
until my dress gets dirty.
if i were a flower,
i would grow to the limit i can,
and shine with colour and beauty
until my pedals wear.
if i were a flood,
i would wipe out mankind,
and then die in boredom and sit around,
until gravity disappears
