The Castle's Mysteries Nursery Rhyme

Once upon a golden day Three precious children worked away With tiny bricks of Legos they Built a castle, Where toys could stay This wasn't competition, The children worked as one And oh, the glorious joy and glee, Their Lego Castle done! "There's room enough for Barbie!" "There's room enough for Dawn!" "There's room enough for..." Oh! Their list of toys went on and on! The Golden Day was ended and the Children went to sleep But inside the Lego Castle Where their dearest toy's they'd keep The magic of the children's hearts In plastic hearts would reap! Barbie clapped in wonder as she happily Looked around Dawn and GI Joe and other bestie friends Were found! Such love in magic wonder as They each had come to life, GI Joe asked Fairy Dawn to Be his wedded wife Dawn stood still in wonder, And Barbie stared wide eyed Teddy Growled, Dawn found her voice "I'm not to be your bride!" And then with fairy dust she swept Joe's sad heart all away And they danced and played Till break of Day Their truest friendship Here to stay! As morning broke Children awoke, Their toys, the plastic Merry folk Did not tease the children, For this was not a joke Were silent as an Ox yoke No one moved And no one spoke In daylight Castle's toys would sleep Their life filled secret, Theirs to keep But every night the magic Of the precious girls and boys Awoke their very special And earnestly loved toys The Lego Castle's Lights Came on And toys would play And dance till dawn As the little children slept The Castle's Mysteries Ever kept The End

Thank you Daniel, it's so good to see you on here! I have so many precious children, though now grown up, and I am blessed to spend a lot of time with some of my grandchildren. They keep the inner child in me aware of their almost magical imaginations in their fun little world. They inspired my poem :)

Thank you Silent One :) It was always a joy to see my children at play, their imaginations setting a tone for their projects. Once they built a house from gathering drawers from a dresser that was going to be thrown out, along with carpet samples and things I never would have imagined being useful for a dollhouse. They already owned a Barbie dreamhouse, and yet they didn't like it as much as the one they and their friends built together. I miss those days. They loved their toys and still have quite a few, though boxed up and put away. They passed many onto other children when they knew the toys would be loved. Now to see my grandkids at play, it just simply inspired my poem :) Their imaginations are priceless!

Thank you Victor, it was fun. I have a lot of children and grandchildren who inspire me. Their imaginations bring their toys to life, and it is so sweet to watch them play. They all love Legos too, especially my youngest three when they were little. :)

I had to FAV, this beautiful work of art, BJ. This poetry is awesome, my friend. I loved it, but children would go crazy over it. It was such a smooth read with a nice rhythm to it. I hope this one gets the POTD, BJ. We'll have to wait and see. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill

Wow!! Is there artistic talent in your family, BJ? Really. Why not illustrate this, make it into a children's poem story-book --- and count those pesos as you live happily ever after?! This is truly marvelous penning and a big FAVE for me. ~ Mr. Pina Colada
