Walt Disney
I love you, Peter
but you are still a boy
your games run
in redundant circles
with Captain Hook
and his pirate ship
he doesn’t have gold
in treasure chests
that I can hold
or spend
his crew
are dancing cartoons
your pet crocodile
doesn’t scare me
neither does
the ticking clock
that caught up to me
the little lines
underneath
my middle-aged eyes
make me glow
with contentment
the storm is coming tonight
and I am cozy
in writing
poetry
James Barrie
found inspiration
and created
Tinker Bell
he borrowed
her fairy dust
for his play
it still sings
playful
for me
when I visit
Neverland
I love you, Wendy
let's keep growing old
together
and watching the
shifting shapes of
cotton clouds
maybe we
will see his ship
cross the moon
let’s smile back
at Captain Hook
and his endless
journey
to the playground
and the imagination
of Walt Disney
he also left his heart
where a child
with an open mind
(creativity)
was meant to be
