Conquerors Of The Skies

In this land of if only, I'd only have myself to reckon with 
no real or imaginary people to fight with or have a tiff 
In a world of seize and conquer I would feel no loss 
I'd ride the ocean winds like an ancient Albatross 

In a world of make believe I'd be Queen of fairies 
grinding my worries away , I'd then pick berries 
in a forest full of bears, tigers and wolves, I'd be  
a minx with great stealth, I'd never want to flee 

In a planet where stars moon and sun can be touched 
I would make plans for a future that can't be botched 
In a society that badges truth, compassion, empathy 
I'd be happy as a lark in the sky, songful and free 

In this land of if only, I'd be a wish that never dies , 
joining forces with all the conquerors of the skies.

Dear Rose, this is such a joy to read and it’s a great title too. The imagery is so lovely,’ ride the ocean winds’’ queen of fairies with bears, tigers, wolves and a planet with stars, moon and sun’ You can easily picture the scenes, the world, where it would be so lovely and peaceful to live … if only.

What a beautiful dream Rose. Whether an albatross or a lark soaring above the fray of godless humanity would indeed be a welcome respite
