Nette Onclaud Poet Free verse

Imaginary Jedi Friends

We raced with giants and stalked Jabba Jab
Climbing on gates of metal and wood,
Fierce skin lacerated from thorny spikes 
Our innocence excused by the gods.

With our light sabers in a clone menace
The troopers moved to protect all borders
From evil DarthNess and his invaders ;
Brave were our young minds with imaginings.

Weary from the Third Encounter
Our jerky knees brought us home,
Five knights reveling about our winning match
As we devoured heaps of steak in one fast round!

Justin Bordner August 29, 2014 at 8:47 PM Hyperspace Heros all the way Nette! Daring kids make for brave adults. The obstacle we overcame to let imagination reign. This poem makes me want to challenge an Empire. " When moonlight guided the bluest of clouds..." vital part of the experience! J.A.B.
