Robin Hood Robinson Crusoe Or Peter Pan

If I had to choose Robin Hood, Robinson Crusoe or Peter Pan?
Hmm……
What a quandary.
What a plight.
I truly do not think I can.

I will never grow up, so I have the Peter Pan part down, furiously.
I have always yearned for my own island, and a giant tree house, curiously.
Wouldn’t I love to steal from the rich who have already stolen from the poor?
This choice cannot be done. I need a part of all of them, forever more.

Quoth Theraven September 23, 2019 at 10:14 AM Caren, Marvelous quandary you found. I like Robin Hood. -Richard Caren Krutsinger September 24, 2019 at 4:37 AM I love Robin Hood and Peter Pan. Two of my favorite fantasies I savor them.

M. L. Kiser February 25, 2019 at 9:24 AM Peter Pan...his life wasn't perfect but, why grow up and become an aging cynic if we don't have to? Well penned. Caren Krutsinger February 25, 2019 at 4:04 PM I thought as a child "He does not have to waste time on school all day. Hooray!" and now where do I spend all of my time? Ha! Relating to hundreds of others who feel exactly the same way....

Anisha Dutta February 24, 2019 at 10:25 PM I do agree. Love. Caren Krutsinger February 25, 2019 at 6:12 AM Thank you Anisha; it always amazes me when other girls want to be princesses. Not me. I would rather be Captain Hook than a princess. Sneer.
