Karen Jones Poet Rhyme

White Whimsical Poem

Write me a white whimsical poem 
With fairies unicorns and wizards 
May all the men be kind and strong
And the grandmas never cook gizzards

And the children always play outside
Doors of the houses are never locked
Games aren’t on phones computerized
With joy playing ball and hopscotch 

No war crimes and no school shooter 
We all smile in the coolest clothes
Riding bikes skateboards or scooters 
Happiness is what we all know

Looking back it was a fantasy
To live in a simpler time yesterday 
Perhaps we can learn to be
As free if we dream and find a way

Valsa George October 18, 2024 at 5:49 AM The world and the times you have described are indeed beautiful... ! But in today's world of commotion and chaos, it sounds utopian. However there is no harm in dreaming of a time, when there are no wars and all live in amity and companionship. Well articulated, dear Karen. Karen Jones October 18, 2024 at 7:59 AM Sometimes all we can do is press on and dream like M L King said in his speech “I have a Dream” dear poetess. Thanks for reading Valsa. I’ve been in a bit of a writer’s slump!
