Wind Chasers

I woke up this morning in a Disney cartoon,
I was the cheese chasing the moon.
I finally caught it, only to see
the moon is hard, dull, and crusty.
So I quickly moved on to something new to attain,
I went to the seaside and found a mermaid.
What a beauty, so new and so rare,
I had to have her, nothing else would compare.
So she left her world and life in the sea
But soon became ordinary, like cheese, like me.
I jumped in my Ferrari to feel the wind in my cheese,
But what I found instead was a sobering breeze.
'Be still' It said, 'For I am the big cheese'.
I stopped the car and got down on my knees.
'Big cheese' I said, 'please help me out,
I'm tired of chasing this wind all about'.
'Stop chasing the wind and chase me instead,
the new cheese is living and old cheese is dead'...
So when you go out today and look around,
you may see a little piece of cheese on the ground.
