I was up at dawn this morning <br />I was in the mood for walking <br />I stepped out my doorway <br />And I walked upon the Earth <br /> <br />The sky was all about us <br />And the moon and stars were out <br />And I felt the Earth responding <br />As I was stepping out <br /> <br />It seemed to move away from me <br />And then come back again <br />When I pushed a little harder <br />It responded just the same <br /> <br />So I tested it methodically <br />As Galileo might have <br />Making lots of measurements <br />And careful observations <br /> <br />The conclusion’s inescapable <br />No doubt that I can find <br />There’s a definite attraction <br />Between the Earth and I <br /> <br />So I took it all on board <br />And it seemed like common sense <br />If we’re so mutually attractive <br />Then we should at least be friends <br /> <br />And so it was agreed we would <br />And that was just the start <br />We always help each other <br />And we’re never far apart <br /> <br />The Earth and I are lovers now <br />We romp and play for fun <br />Me and Earth an item <br />As we hurtle round the Sun <br /> <br />So if you feel vague tremors <br />As you’re lying in your bed <br />Its me and Earth out walking <br />We’re the very best of friends<br /><br />David S Dennis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/86-walkin-with-the-earth/
