It Was All a Dream

laying there out in the plain, out in the plain alone, watching the clouds one by one, watch shapes in the sky go by, i fantasizing of fairy tales the ones my mother would share, a red hooded girl skips on through, as seven dworves whistle with bears, several princesses hurry along, as for one looses a shoe, followed by a big bad wolf, as well as three piggys too, standing up i lurk behind, watching carefully from afar, to see a queen stand from her chair cheerfully welcoming them all, every character of all tales told applaud while screaming hurray, a white rabbit scurries down the middle, panicly saying im late, IM LATE! a blonde little girl hurries after her friend, with everyone followed behind, soon they will see a castle for me, for me a castle, i would never have thought, making my way through the crowed, i step up on the stage, everyone cheered, i say is all here? hearing everyone but whinnie the pooh, we left on a search, looking high and low, everyone was stumped, then we heard, thump thump, to only see the silly ol' bear, they all gather round, greeting their friend, before i go to say my hello, I stop, i realize this is all a dream, the best dream of them all, one that should never come to an end, everyone looks to see me stand still, they wave goodbye as they all disappear, i didnt want to leave, but i knew i should, i awake from my slumber, as a big clash of thunder, sound being followed by rain, i gather my things and head for the house, running up stairs i jump up upon my bead, thinking of my friends, my friends from the dream, a dream that never came true, falling asleep i dream of my friends, of me the queen, celebrating with a royal ball, ending with a hapilly ever after, That is my story, the story that changed my life, seeing things differently, opening my mind, seeing things for more than what they seem.
