If I could fly

What would happen if we could fly?
Would we live up in the sky?
Would we live like birds in trees?
Or would we build our homes like bees?
I wonder if our arms would ache?
Maybe they would even break!
I wonder what we'd choose to eat?
I doubt we'd ever use our feet!
Would we all like it in the air?
I bet the birds would stop and stare!
Would we ever use the land?
We might forget just how to stand!
Would we grow beaks and tails and stuff?
Instead of clothes, have feathery fluff?
Would the clouds have chocolate shops?
We'd fly amonst the rainbow drops
But when it comes to time for bed
Would we use clouds to rest our heads?
Wrap a rainbow round us tight
I think I'd like the gift of flight!
