Placed Third in Fantasy Poetry Contest sponsored by Constance La France

Checked by www.howmanysyllables.com> syllable_counter ************************************************************** If Fantasy Were Reality Human mind is like a wild cheeky horse, Untrained, it pursues its own wilful course Of IMAGINATION that lively brains Can freely wish and afford to sustain In a DREAM world of reckless REVERIE Amidst the glow of frantic fantasy. Flying on silvery wings of fancy I dream being the king of my country With beauties of my choice serving on me, Attending to my WHIMSY wants like flees, Basking in the sun in midst of the sea, Inhaling freshness of the air, carefree. Alas, when the dream comes to abrupt halt I feel being struck by a thunderbolt Viewing it as VISUALISATION Bordering on a HALLUCINATION With the sour sense of dropping from the moon To face the realm of reality soon. If fantasy were a reality There would exist no shrines of poverty No climes where wicked woeful wars are waged No theatre where violence is staged, But a land where blooms the flower of peace Where in every soul sprouts the seed of bliss. If fantasy could endow us with grace Evert poor man`s house would be a palace, Man could dwell on earth many thousand years Without shedding a drop of pearly tear, Without an iota of divine fear, Decreeing earth as his very own sphere.

If fantasy could be real, the world would be a totally different place of beauty, peace and joy. When fantasy remains as it is, from the heights of delight we will fall down to the rocky ground of harsh realities. You have beautifully analyzed this two possibilities in your lovely composition. Congratulations dear Krish on your win.

In these fields you stand as a stalwart oak tree casting your shade far and wide. I will soon be posting a poem hinting thereto in between the lines. Wish you a wonderful weekend.

Dear poet friend, I feel flattered by your words. It is true that a bit of ourselves goes out through our poems as poetry is , inter alia, expression of feelings vividly felt deep within us and profound thoughts lingering in our mind.
