He Chases Dreams

Imagination brings his steed alive, a magical horse to a mind that's five. And the enthusiasm of a small boy momentarily magnifies his joy. With a kick of his spurs, his horse takes flight, and like all cowboys, he holds the reins tight. Around the carousel, he chases dreams surrounded by laughter and children's screams. Following a happy grin to its source he becomes a hero atop his horse. And roleplays fantasies of his time whereas fiction and reality rhyme.
