A Magical Tour

I got a curse A witch appeared And made me small When I was wandering A big ant hauled me to an ant's colony A pile of rice, chunks of meats Tons of sugar pieces and shelves of sweets, I discerned there Hoarding their nutritious hay Working 24/7 a day They never got tired Sitting on the back of an ant I eloped the colony and Stepped into a garden enchanting With colorful hues around Every plants wore a crown Oh, the divine fragrance, couldn't apprise Enticed by the orange flowers I embraced one and slept for hours Floated in a heavenly dream When I opened my eyes I was flying to my surprise Bewildered me, cried Realised I was anchored on a butterfly My euphoria she amplified Flying along with her, I adored the world When she met her mate fair Performed divine dance in the air And dropped me in the land wild Exhausted me, slept on a brown wood Oh ho! It's not a wood but a dry leaf Which floated when zephyr kissed him Clutching the leaf's petiole I was flying like a golden oriole Until the leaf fell down into a fall Glided the cascading falls Like riding on water coaster I outreached the jubilant river Flowing along with the river pure Espied her esteemed generous life My mental and physical illness got cured Through the treasured estuary Mingled with the sea finally Calm and relaxed my soul was Pondering the magical ride Relished on the shore long Until tugged by a tall tide Diving deep into the sea Glimpsed colorful trees Yes, the coral reefs Emerged there a mermaid I was really afraid But she caressed me gleefully I started penning verses About my retained curse "Is this even a curse" She grinned and disappeared "Oh! Yes! It's not a curse, a blessing actually"I shouted; On seeing me relishing the curse, the witch chagrined Detonated the witch, my positivity And my curse turned into a blessing already
