A Pinocchio Dream " Inspired By Rain "... & Special Thanks To John Robbins :)
It's not the usual bed time stories book that u expect to see
Beside it all the other tales books on the shelf are well done
The book that make you smile along the pages
Or remind you how childhood had been so much fun
It may seem a usual fairy tale book
So just turn its pages & let's have a look
The first tale is for Pinocchio
The old fairy tale that we used to hear
About a wooden puppet who dreamed of being real
The blue fairy said she could help him if he proved he worth it
Then she could turn him to a real boy no longer a puppet
He only needs to prove he could be brave, truthful & unselfish
Able to tell right from wrong by listening to his conscience
But it seems he couldn't understand any of it
& started to act totally the opposite
But then after a long adventure being such a bad toy
He ended up with donkey ears & tears of a little boy
& all what he got was a poor wooden broken heart
Didn’t know how to end this or why did he make all this start
U could stop at this point, I think you know how the story end
Just try to listen what message it's been trying to send
It's not about being a person or something made of wood
It's about worth being real or not
U may be breathing but are you real
Or you are turning to be wooden & u can't even feel
With a little help of the blue fairy, bravery & truth
Without being yet real without searching for an excuse
The puppet strings no more belong to Pinocchio
So if you don’t worth being a real person then those strings belong to you
