CARTOON SONGLINES: Thinking of swimming...

Published in the Daily Mail UK 17.7.12

Swimming in the rain
Some waving but not drowning
Not a time to dance

The Grand Parade - Michael Leunig

And so we come to the grand parade
Where all the sounds of joy are made
As we finally open every cage
And let the humans out to rage
And dance along with hands on hips;
To roll their heads and pout their lips;
Characters bright and characters shady;
The prime Minister shall dance with the Naked Lady,
The sad old man will be reconciled
With the beautiful truth of his inner child,
And sweet Palestinians with sweet Israelis
Will blow fanfares of peace on their ukuleles.
Then the humans creatures shall finally see.
That where there is love – THEY ARE FREE.
