Jack Ellison Poet Couplet

Aneylephin

(a-NAY-le-fin)

Come, let your imagination flow free
Climb aboard, fly away with me
To this magical land called ANEYLEPHIN
A land of goodness with 'ear to ear' grins

Play among fields of perfumed flowers
Dance between drops of warm spring showers
Hugs are the currency in this fantasy land
So no excuses, drop by when you can

It's my utopia, my sunshine state
What more can I ask, it fills up my plate
Wait a darn minute! What do I hear?
A bunch of cynics bending your ear?

Whatcha been smoking? I heard someone ask
It's liquid joy juice from a happiness flask
If they still insist on wearing a frown
Don't let these guys drag you down

Pay no attention, they're jealous you see
So gather 'round children just follow me
To this magical land called ANEYLEPHIN
Clear your mind, let the sunshine in!

Susan Burd October 23, 2012 at 7:22 AM I hope there's candy too! maybe gumdrops, lollipops and Goldenberg's Peanut chews (don't know if you have them up in the Great North). I'll bring my bunny rabbits and rainbow skies along! Where's my plane ticket? I'm already packed;) Jack Ellison October 23, 2012 at 7:27 AM Don't need a ticket... just close your eyes!
