Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen Poet Rhyme

Upon a Fantasy

I took a trip to Toyland upon a fantasy.
Tiny elves were everywhere.
Snow drifts, floating in the air.
Oh, the mysterious grand sights I did see!

Candy canes and walking sticks waltzing.
Toy trains with miniature children gawking.
Baby dolls riding wooden horses, rocking.
Model dinosaurs and toy soldiers, stalking.

My eyes were amazed by the wonder!
My heart skipped three beats and fluttered.
Inside, right away, I sought to plunder.
But I stopped for a moment and pondered.

I loved my trip to Toyland, every toy a fantasy.
How in the world did I get there?
That reality remains a mystery.  
Imagination...and a dream with great flare!
