The ‘illions, by volume, area and time

The ‘illions, by volume, area and time
If a million
Was a walnut
A billion
Would be three ice cream pails
A trillion
Would be my spare bedroom
====
If a million
Could be covered by a man’s handkerchief
A billion
Could be covered by a 1500 square foot bungalow
A trillion
Would be 25 acres – 33 football fields
====
If a million
Was a single day
A billion
Would be 2 years 10 months
A trillion
Would be 2800 years
