Heidi Sands Poet Free verse

Building Castles In the Sky

Sing to me that song again
That builds a castle in the sky
Where everything is shining
There are no tears to cry
Glistening waterfalls,
Golden rocks in the walls
Soft colorful carpets
Match stained glass windows
With balconies outside 
To see the landscape below
Sing to me that song again 
That builds a castle in the sky
With beautiful spiral staircases
A white baby grand piano
Playing this soft lullaby
Where there is no pain at all
Nothing but love fills every room
Fresh fruit shines on the counter
Tiled floor looks like the sea
The sweet scent of roses in the air
Please sing this lullaby to me
So I can close my eyes to calmly rest
On top of floating cushions in a dream
Of this magnificent castle in the sky

Heidi Sands
