What is fairer?
What is fairer than a moon lit night?
When stars are shining bold and bright.
What is fairer than a cherry tree?
When pink blossoms fall fair and free.
What is colder than artic snow?
As inky blue as oceans that flow.
What is colder than a misty day?
Its droplets of light like cold sea spray.
What is brighter than planets and stars?
Neptune, Uranus, Venus and mars.
What is than the sun in the sky?
Winking its eye in the clouds way up high.
I know what's fairer than flowers and trees:
The scent of the morning on a cold night's breeze!
I now what's colder than ice and snow:
A frozen heart that can never grow.
I know what's brighter than stars far away:
The light of the life I live every day!
