TIP TOP SHAPE

Ever been in Tip Top shape?
The world your oyster to take?
I question just what that means.
I ponder with mind so keen.

Does it mean on Top of the Tip?
Careful not to slip.
Uncomfortable looking down,
At little people on the ground.

All alone you look down.
Quiet - not a sound.
Careful, your bubble night pop!
Very lonesome at the top.

After thinking this whole thing through.
This is what I think I'll do.
Skip along and don't stop.
Stay in the middle -not on Tip Top.
