Hitching a Ride

Going deep into the valley as the last rays fade in the big clearing there waiting for me is Snowflake now he is a Unicorn that kindly takes me on journeys to wondrous far off mystical realms that astound Climbing onto his back we set off at speed of light soaring high we circled the moon saying how do you do to the blue cheese man who doffs his hat and bows then sends beams of bright rays to lighten our path Then racing a shooting star leaving it far behind onward to Saturn where we dance through its rings leaving the best to last we fly on to the lady herself Venus the enchantress, the planet of love that enthrals Filled to the brim with the sights and the wonder we drift down to land hugging Snowflake who wickers then flies off into the dawn fast becoming a disappearing dot leaving me to wander homeward drinking in creations miracles written 04/04/2014 contest Today's poem
