Dreams of Happiness

Do you ever close your eyes, let your imagination run Taking you off to places that are impossible but fun Like floating on the air waves and reaching for the sun Drifting ever upwards once your journey has begun Soaring through the clouds and singing like a lark Looking down below at the people in the park Turning round the corners in an spiral like an arc Hearing things below you like the noisy dogs that bark Catching hold of sunbeams and deflecting them below Or holding on real tightly to them and feeling them grow Reaching for the sunlight as you journey to and fro Floating onwards drifting forwards never wanting to go slow Standing in mid air now and looking all around Listening real hard for any tiny little sound Looking far below you at the ants upon the ground Spinning ever upwards turning round and round and round Flying like you're swimming using arms to do the crawl Kicking with your feet to steer you giving it your all Winning your own race and feeling ten feet tall Enjoying your sensations knowing you will never fall Imagination can take you to happy times you see Flying with the birds, being wild and free All it takes is close your eyes and look and you will be Transported on a journey to your fantasy like me Jane Shields
