If All the Seas Were One Sea (Monday Poem)

 by Anonymous


If all the seas were one sea,

What a great sea that would be!

If all the trees were one tree,

What a great tree that would be!

And if all the axes were one axe,

What a great axe that would be!

And if all the men were one man,

What a great man that would be!

And if the great man took the great axe

And cut down the great tree,

And let it fall into the great sea,

What a splish-splash that would be!
