Wistful Thoughts

Dreaming of castles in the sky
wishing that I could drop by
I could maybe learn to fly

Seeing unicorns passing 
silvery coats glistening
as sun beams are shining

Leaping frogs croaking
at flies that are teasing
by merely swooping

Trees are slowly creeping
ashes and oaks are bowing
forest is breathing

Ah dreams escaping
each is speaking
leaving me wondering

I enjoy the fantasy thoughts. Unicorns and frogs make me think of nursery rhymes. This is an uplifting poem.
