Notes About The Poem

Dreams and Ruby Slippers

Down the yellow brick road, in a place not very far,
In a land I heard of, you find out who you truly are.
Just follow the magical road, of friendship and love,
For adventure awaits, and things you are dreaming of!

The sparkling ruby slippers, will soon take you there,
To a fabled Emerald City, over the rainbow somewhere.
No room for evil doubting, but faith is what you need;
And ruby slippers on a path of blooms, of hope's seed!

I'd say home is where the heart is, Mr. Tin Man. :D

Hi Judy, Your poem is magical and well written. Can anyone go? If so, let go get my sparkling ruby slippers. Who wouldn't want to go to such a place? I enjoyed the read. PS, I loved the wizard of oz and the whiz. Have a wonderful day:-) Alexis

Hi Alexis, Anyone at all can go, and ruby slippers are a definite plus ( they come in styles for males, too, resembling a loafer). I still recall my childish enchantment the first time I saw that movie. The idea of following a yellow brick road to your wildest dreams, has universal appeal. Thank you very much for your lovely comment. Have a nice evening. :D Evelyn
