I Wonder?

 

What would happen if the sun became the moon?

and the moon became the sun?

what I mean is, if their roles were reversed

and we lived our daily rush hour

under the moon and slept under the sun?

 

would we have less cancer?

less need for sun hats?

maybe the homeless wouldn’t be so cold?

with the birds happily singing lullabies to them

as they tried to sleep in the bright sunshine?

 

and in the day which would become night

would everything become incredibly quiet?

would we use less electricity and gas at home?

and on the weekends

would our children be able to play happily?

under moon light which would be day?

 

and the lions and tigers from the local zoo 

would wander the streets at night in the sunshine?

maybe they wear sun hats?  

wandering the streets

whilst everyone is home sleeping blissfully? 

never knowing what and who was wandering past their gate?

 

I wonder all these things

do you ever wonder like me?

about the way things could be? 

 

I wonder.
