A Little Rhyme In Fantasy Time

Dreams in bottles
 and maps on walls,
 fairy tales told
 of knights so tall.

Dragons and maidens
 battle in flaming towers,
 as unicorns jump
 over plants and flowers. 

Elves and dwarves
 dwell in a hole,
 a witch who steals
 your heart and soul. 

Griffins soaring
 high on the clouds,
 wraths who scream
 ever so loud. 

Shadows whose form
 shifts in the night,
 screams that shiver
 to bring on fright. 

Angels that sing
 as pure as the sun,
 a ring that possesses
 your mind and runs. 

Ghouls rip out
 your stomach and guts,
 evil cars that crawl
 over bodies and ruts. 

Zombies who want
 to feast on your flesh,
 wizards with wand
 slowing the thresh. 

The fantasy world
 can be what you will,
 your mind is unlimited
 if you hold it quite still.

I haven't been well and I wrote this one for a little bit of fun in the down times...thanks for reading as always...Jayne
