A Dream Written With Richard Lamoureux

In my dreams I was given a seed
The elf told me to plant it deep
In a far off strangely odd valley 
A lovely place that the Angels Keep

This valley was way far beyond the trees
There would be challenges along the way
I strived and struggled to make my way through
Travelling forcefully through night and day

I found my way to Moon Valley Clearing
A special place where time does not exist
The extinct animals they all lived there
Too many to count or possibly list

I got to stroll with the great Do Do bird
Listened to his tales from so long ago
I rode a unicorn  across a field
Breathed in air so fresh it made my skin glow

I reached the end of a magic rainbow
This was the place for me to plant the seed
Within a few moments a tree appeared
Colour from the ground it began to bleed

I watched the rainbow as it joined the tree
The branches grew out creating a dome
My unicorn said thanks for bringing peace
Tranquillity spread all over their home

The magic of youth was held in it's bark
To have it work, in the valley I must remain
Eat a small piece and be forever young
Among the animals I would have no care

I thanked my new friend I could not remain
With a subtle wink and a toss of her head
she waved me off as I flew  back to my bed
I remembered all the things that she said

I smiled at the thought of that special place
A magical place beneath a warm dome
A sanctuary, beyond human kind
The animals are safe, they call it home

                FINIS

A Shadowlam production
