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
