3rd in the 'Watch Out! 2000' competition

If I could travel to the coolest place
I’d jump on a rocket to outer space
I would see meteors, comets, and the Milky Way
Take a nap on the moon, at the end of the day
I could swing from a star, or jump through
Saturn’s rings
Maybe visit Mars, or do some other amazing things
I would play with the cow that jumps over the moon
Play games with the dog, to the cat sing a tune
Put all of my treasures, in the cute little dish.
Oh! If I could travel; this would be my wish.
