Plane Ride

Started out in Birmingham
Things seemed pretty tame,
Stewardess went through the rules
She smiled and said her name.
Belt was buckled luggage stowed
Pilot said, "Let's Go!"
Wheels let go of earth and then
All norms were out the door.
We entered in a puffy cloud
With hues of green and yellow,
I looked over and saw a cow
Where once there was a fellow.
The sky was filled with flying things
Like saucers, dragons, parrots,
Frisbees, fish, ice cream bars,
Pigeons, pants, and carrots.
The stewardess then brought our drinks
Mine with bubbles and smoke,
She turned and walked back down the aisle
Wearing a long black cloak.
I downed my drink in seconds flat
The plane did wiggles and flippies,
Everybody ralphed except me. . .
And John from Mississippi.
We landed on the planet Mars
Had lunch with little green men,
Then flew back home to Birmingham
Can't wait to fly again.
