Up No. 1

Up, such a word

Have ya every really looked at those letters that make it up?

There is a ‘U’

Then there is a ‘P’

 

Up, think about it

It happens all the time

You wake up; you go up…you drink a bottle of wine

You win up, you give up...sometimes you get a sign

Let’s head up, or step up when the time is right

You make up; you stay up to see all the stars align

 

What is ‘Up’ to you, you ask?

I think it’s a straightward arrow pointing to the sky

Sometimes

I don’t think at all

And sometimes I think about the wine…it gives me heartburn

 

Up, not perdition? Or is it so?

Down below?

I really don’t know

But that’s all pomp and circumstance, no? Es que?

 

Up in arms, upwards and onwards

Up and about

Up to the top, upscale and otherwise upshot

 

Oh, and how? How about that?

What’s up with that

Up in heaven

Upwards and onwards, huh?

 

Stand put for that is upwards

And up is where you want to go

Feel up and all about

Don’t dwell on what‘s down below

 

Up, up and away

Just like an old style airplane

Up there to stay

Just like the old daze

 

Now be up and be off
