THINGS I’LL NEVER SEE by Russ McKay

I was thinking ’bout things yesterday

When I was stuck inside

There was a storm with blowing rain

And I couldn’t go outside

I thought about all the things

That I cannot do

I wonder ’bout these things sometimes

I bet you wonder too…don’t you?

Well anyway I had this thought

Running through my head

Just looking up while in my room

Lying on my bed

There are things I’ll never see

Like the back of Mars

And I’ll never see the oceans dry

Or when tourists visit stars

 And I know I’ll never see

My Great, great, great, great, great

Great, great, great, great, great, great, great

Grand son or daughter skate

And there are things I’ve never seen

That have gone before

Like the Dodo bird and King George the Third

And a living dinosaur

But those things are so far away

In the future or the past

There are many other things

Much closer still…that I can think of fast

I cannot see the wind outside

‘Though I hear it getting nearer

And I cannot see my backside either

Not without a mirror!
