What do you see # 12- January 13th, 2020

 

 

When miraculous things happen

the mind screams in disbelief

while lying in a meadow

the summer sun striking the daisies gold

There he stood, the unicorn from my scrapbook

Alive in splendour, his flowing mane and tail

white and gold, blue eyes that cannot be forgotten

He moved towards me his thoughts inside my head

“Come follow me, stay awhile in my world.”

That’s when I heard the warning bell

The land of the fey is no place

for mortals to stay too long

To eat their food is to lose your soul,

lose time in your own world

Your family thinking you lost, move on,

grow older while you stay the same

Should I risk one minute

in this Alice in Wonderland moment?

My heart said yes, my mind said no

Keep your childhood wonders in picture form

Get up, run for home…
