In Tony Funderburk's writing for kids, he recommends a daydream in blue.

You know what I say? I say, if you’re gonna daydream, daydream in blue. There’s more room for daydreamers in the color of blue because there’s more blue around the planet than any other color. I mean…have you ever seen Earth in any of those pictures taken from satellites? Everyone talks about being green. Forget that. I say blue all the way…

Daydream In Blue

Sitting there minding your own business
And a cloud whispers in your ear,
“Hey, why are you readin’ that ol’ schoolbook?
There’s a daydream waitin’ up here.”

Well, you look up from your ol’ schoolbook
And the cloud smiles and says to you,
“Get up out of that boring ol’ brown chair.
Float up here and daydream in blue.”

“I can’t float,” you say to the grey cloud,
I’m a kid…not a cloud like you.
And as much as I’d love to go flying…
It’s not something a real kid can do.”

The cloud laughs and spits out some raindrops
Two big ones plop down in your eyes.
Then all of a sudden you float up…
And soar through the beautiful skies.

You can’t believe how blue the blue is
Through the sky, on earth, and the sea.
It looks like a giant, blue marble…
The shooter of this galaxy.

From behind you can hear the cloud laugh.
“Look at you,” he says, passing by.
“What’s so funny?” you ask with a grin.
“Well, look…you’re up here in the sky.

“You said that you just couldn’t do it.
You said that no real kids could fly.
And yet here you are floating through it…
The beautiful cornflower sky.”

You have to admit that the cloud’s right.
It’s not someone else, this is you
Who’s floating through all of the heavens.
It must be that daydream in blue.

And then you begin to remember
There’s still so much work you must do.
Don’t worry, don’t fret, you can come back…
Come back to your daydream in blue.

Stay tuned,
