Crystal Loves the Waves
Crystal loves the waves
And takes them for a ride.
But just right now her mummy
Is on the other side.
As far as she can see
There are waves, and more, and more.
But just right now her mummy
Is on the other shore.
It’s a great big ocean
With lots of sharks and whales,
Octopus and sailboats
And big boats without sails,
Polar bears and penguins,
And lots and lots of fish.
But just right now her mummy
Would like to make one wish.
Crystal’s mummy wishes
The ocean were a puddle.
Then she could jump across
And the two of them could cuddle!
Wouldn’t it be nice
If the ocean were a lake?
Then Crystal’s mummy
Could have some birthday cake.
Crystal’s mummy loves her,
But she is far away.
So just right now she sends her love
On Crystal’s special day.
