I Wish I was a Starfish

Rate: 30 Flag
                   
                      Have you ever felt like a Starfish? 
              StarfishI


                                 How about a JellyFish?

This is a slightly different version.

                                 I Wish I Was a Starfish 

I wish I was a Starfish

sitting in a tree

staring down at people

staring up at me

If I was a was a Starfish

and you were a Starfish girl

I would find an oyster

and give you the pretty pearl

and If I was a Starfish

we would find a park and play

you and I would find a swing

and we could swing all day

and If I was  a Starfish

and you were my sweetheart

I would never leave your side

and we would never part

and If I was a Starfish

I'd give you a diamond ring

we could dress up at night

and go and dance and sing

if I was a Starfish

flying through the air

I would take you with me

and we'd never have a care

and If was a Starfish

with you as my best friend

we could laugh and play

until the day would end

I may never be a Starfish

but it never hurts to wish

maybe I'll wish tomorrow

that we're both a Jellyfish

I like this friend....
So delightful to think of a starfish and mouse sharing a house.
Such a cool poem and images. You are my starfish.
rated with love
I love this. Im going to memorise it and sing it at work! Happy New Year Scanner!

I especially enjoy the ending.
At first I thought you were going to talk about Sponge Bob or whatever his name is..:)
Then I read this.. The ending says it all. we always want to be someone else.:)
HUGGGGGGGGGG
Thank ya'll. I wanted to start the year off innocently. I want this year to be a year of peace for this country and the world. War is bad for everyone and I will never figure out why countries do it. It should be a law, that the people who make war, have to fight it. If the old men who send young men to their deaths, had to stand and face their enemy, war would be Obsolete, forever!
So nice. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you.
If you were a Jellyfish then you could sting Mitt, Newt, rick and who knows who else!
H0w did I miss this in 2010????? I love it and I think it is telling about the real character of our mercurial friend Sky to make such a thoughtful gift for you.

A very nice start to the new year.
Thank you for this cool breeze of happiness.
Delightful. You're a helluva lot more versatile than a starfish, Scanman. I won't say anything about the poster, though, because Skypixie and I are not speaking.
Lovely poem, Scanner. And a beautiful poster that inspired you to write this poem. You inspire me, my Friend.

R♥
I loved this poem very light and fun!!! Thanks!
Dear Scanner, I like this, I really, really like this! Thanksabunch for reposting,
I love this, Scanner. -R-

Amen. / r
I went fishing for some jelly
To put upon my toast
Instead I found our Scanner
And this insightful post!
I thought it over a bit and, no, I've never wished I was a starfish but it's nice to get your take on it. (It WOULD be cool to be able to invert my stomach...)
so beautiful, and beautiful artwork as well!
I just keep thinking about amazing starfish sex...all those limbs.
Both versions were great. I don't think I've ever heard it before. Thanks for sharing.
Oh I like the visual. Wow. And such whimsy. I think you ARE a starfish. I would like to be a jelly fish too. More More.
If you were a starfish
how pretty you would be
floating in the ocean
playing in the sea.

I'm glad you're not a starfish
which is selfish as can be
'cause if you were a starfish
this post I'd never see!
(Tee Hee!)

Great fun!!
No starfish for me, but I wish I were a shark. This way I could have fun with all those people who yell, "Bite me!" at the beach. R
Oh this made me happy. I wish I was a starfish tonight...but maybe a jellyfish instead.
Correct me if I am wrong, but if a star fish loses an arm, he just grows another one! Another reason to be a creature of the sea (but I live on the beach, so I am partial) -- just don't leave them in the trunk of your car in the Florida heat!
Awwwww....... (*blush, blush*) (digs toe in dirt) Who'd a thought that you'd keep that bit of whatever? Someone sent it to me and I just messed around with it while learning to put in photos and a colour background and creating that "gold" colour for the print.

Thanks for this scan man. You are truly a very special person....
