Baby Unicorn

Welcome to the land of butterflys and buttercups The place where baby unicorns run free It does not rain here Nothing but sunshine sandy beaches Race with the waves as they crash against the shore Here the sand is white as snow Yet it's so soft So warm The water azure blue Dive into the ocean Let it envelope your body Wash away sadness Cleanse you Renew your soul Emerge Energized Strengthened Joy can once again be a friend Dream happy dreams Fill your land with all that you love You are woman Stronger than even you know The pen is mightier You are a poet a creator of worlds You determine what you see You choose your joy Let imagination fuel reality See the you that you are meant to be Dedicated to Colleen Bono Check out the Science of Happiness by Shawn Achor on UTube Submitted to You Are Beautiful Contest.

The last two lines really topped it off for me. Imagination fueling reality? < I love that. Though the title is overtly cutesy I'm glad that it sparked my curiosity. Wonderful dedication!
