good friends we have, oh good friends we've lost... along the way...

no creo que este sea el poema que más represente el estilo de Shell Silverstein, pero hojeando un poquito el libro "Falling Up" esta madrugada... me dieron ganas de compartir este...

(click para verlo grandote y leerlo claramente :) )

NEEDLES AND PINS

Needles and pins,
Needles and pins,
Sew me a sail
To catch me the wind.

Sew me a sail
Strong as the gale,
Carpenter, bring out your
Hammers and nails.

Hammers and nails,
Hammers and nails,
Build me a boat
To go chasing the whales.

Chasing the whales,
Sailing the blue,
Find me a captain
And sign me a crew.

Captain and crew,
Captain and crew,
Take me, oh take me
To anywhere new.
