Somewhere A Child Dreams

by Twisted Heart   Jun 2, 2007


A dream of love and chocolate kisses
Fairy dust and tender wishes
Are part of what is in the eyes
Of mothers singing lullabies.

A sweet caress of loving hands
Traveling through far off lands
Or kicking clouds up in the sky
Marshmallow tufts floating by.

To catch a star with such glee
To toss it in the galaxy
Sip the Milky way from cups
Mere mountains don't seem high enough.

Dragons there for you to slay
A maiden fair you win that day
You are the king of all that be
On green earth and in blue seas.

On gallant horses you will ride
Or fly a spaceship in the sky
With eyes in slumber you can share
A world of dreams that's waiting there.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE your line about sipping the Milky Way! That was so creative! I bet that's just what a child thinks of when it hears of the milky way galaxy! LOL! This was so sweet and well-written. Nice to see a piece that is just about life...not about lost love, broken hearts, war, cliques, or anything painful, but about the wonder of childhood and the greatness of dreams!
    Devine piece!
