Poets' Creed - We Are Building Castles In the Sky
We are building castles in the sky
with expectations higher than high!
Those gray clouds above have got to go.
We only choose to see a rainbow.
We’ll have our Camelot before we die.
We are building castles in the sky.
Don’t tell us this is just a crazy dream.
Love’s strength is like the stars above that gleam.
Radiating joy, we are beams of sun.
Happiness we extend to everyone.
We are building castles in the sky.
Join with us; the time of peace is nigh.
We are visionaries and we see
with eyes of magic. We are Poetry.
Imagine it! Free your mind and fly!
We are building castles in the sky.

Inspired by Steven Henderson's Poetry Contest: Building Castles in the Sky
With a nod to the songs of an era of peace and love: Lennon’s "Imagine", Beatles’ "Here Comes the Sun", Oliver’s "Good Morning Starshine", Louie Armstrong’s "What a Wonderful World", 5th Dimension’s "Aquarius/Let the Sun Shine In", Jackie DaShannon’s "What the World Needs Now", as well as Olivia Newton-John’s "Magic" and the classic oldie" Somewhere Over the Rainbow."
