Sun Shade
Body covered in sunsets golden silk
Many miles run up and down sand Dune
Going like demon my rest can’t come too soon
Dappled skin soaked in sweats sweat milk
Cool crisp water showers me with clensing
Warm residue of the brilliant summer day
Dries my weary aches and pains away
Natures medicine the sun is dispensing
Adrenaline dump my shoulders now slouch
Whisk me away to my world of dreams
What I’m feeling now isn’t all it seems
Ready for a nap please find me a couch
I lay my head gently in the soft sand
And swiftly drift off to my Neverland
Dreams of Tinkerbell are not what I planned
Fairy’s sprinkling magic dust all so grand
Peter and Wendy spirit me away
These are the last boys and now we can play
Happily frolicking until Captain Hook
Shouts how he’ll get me by hook or by crook
My sweet little dream is now a nightmare
Cornered by Hook completely unaware
Peter Pan proves the hero of the day
I flee as Peters sword keeps Hook at bay
Running running on the spot or so I believe
I’m in the air though my eyes must deceive
Tinkerbell dances showing me the light
Peter and Hook stage a hell of a fight
Tinkerbells light is beginning to fade
I open my eyes to the cool of the shade
Not quite aware of what just transpired
The power of dreams greatly admired
Even revered by the mystical one
Lovingly told now a fable to his son
