The flower said, "I wish I was a tree," The tree said, "I wish I could be A different kind of tree, The cat wished that it was a bee, The turtle wished that it could fly Really high into the sky, Over rooftops and then dive Deep into the sea. And in the sea there is a fish, A fish that has a secret wish, A wish to be a big cactus With a pink flower on it. And in the sea there is a fish, A fish that has a secret wish, A wish to be a big cactus With a pink flower on it. And the flower Would be its offering Of love to the desert. And the desert, So dry and lonely, That the creatures all Appreciate the effort.
