Mike Gentile Poet Rhyme

Cotton Candy Dreams

With every drop of lemonade that walks me to the park
     I’m filled of cotton candy dreams which guide my easy gait

The cardinals’ call of dawning bliss , no longer in the dark 
             Arrives to serenade my dreams and I can hardly wait


Today, another day to live, another day to taste
                               I find I am a happy soul if I just let it be

With all my cotton candy dreams, I promise not to waste
                      Horizons are now limitless for all that I can see


It’s then, I stop to look around in hues of blue and pink
               A soft and fluffy wonderland is there to bring to fore

My feet are lifted by the breeze and this is what I think  
    With not a drop of rain in sight who then could ask for more

Jenna Logan October 17, 2022 at 6:39 AM It's the simple pleasures in life that we most often overlook. You don't take those things for granted, Mike. I've always wondered why cotton candy isn't made in other colors. Is it a boy/girl color thing? Mike Gentile October 17, 2022 at 9:35 AM You know, I’m not sure but it always evokes fun time as a child!!
