Many people I know make listsLists of all the.thinqs to doThey make shopping lists,And birthdays to remember lists. And lists of important telephone numbers too.But the lists I make once in a while,After I've had time to think matters through,

Are quite unlike any of these, you know,For my lists' 'are full of wonderful thingsThat I hope,' someday to do

Somnday, I'll buy a rocketAnd zoom to outer space,I'll visit Venus, Jupiter and Mars.I'll make stopovers at every planet I see

To check If I can find new undiscovered stars.Someday I'll dive to the bottom of the sea,To hunt for mermaids with long green tailsOn my way down, I'll swim with dolphins,And listen for sin9ing humpback whales
