				The day when the world
				turned upside down:
				when a frown became a smile
				and a smile became a frown.
			

				When the mice chased the cats
				the cats chased the dogs.
				The dogs laughed out loud
				at the pink and yellow frogs.
			

				When you went to bed in the daytime
				and got up at night.
				When birds caught the school bus
				and the cows took flight.
			

				When the moon came out
				in the middle of the day
				and all of the ocean's fish
				rolled around in the hay.
