Around the World


I've gone around the world.

I've gone to seek,

the mountain peaks

To swim every lake

without any breaks

To climb the trees,

And overlook the seas

I''ve gone into the tunnels,

Into the caves

Into the jungles,

where mountain lions rave.

Now someone said something,

the other day

that

wasn't quite right

They said the world,

with its

peaks and

drops, ins and outs

was simply

Just alright.
