Where I Come From

11:50 AM  01 Oct. 2014

I come from the land of midnight dreams
Where nothing is exactly as it seems

Black is white and white is blue
A hat is a pot and a glove a shoe

The frogs have wings and fly high in the sky
And the clouds are ponds filled with fish beautiful to the eye

The horses run free and people pull the load
A prince when kissed turns into a toad

Where flowers sing
While church bells ring

Trees live on and never die
Where food comes free and the favorite is pie

Good is always good and evil is never found
Where the land has no fences because its all free ground

Where poems like this go on and on 
In everyday speak and everyday song

Thank you I am happy that you enjoyed it. Maybe one day we all will remember who and what we really are and let go of ourselves and selfishness and be united with God.
