In the Mind of a Child

In the Mind of a Child

Imagine soaring through the mind of a child
Midst castle shaped clouds in the bluest of skies.
Able to touch tippy toes to the sun, swinging from
Great, woody boughs opened wide — a giant's arms
In leafy disguise or a fortress to climb and hide.
Neverland's just a sprinkle away,
Adrift in that starry sea, while underneath beds
There are monsters that crouch, just waiting to pounce
Into dreams, and the only escape is to ride
On the wings of a butterfly, soaring with grace,
Nudging from a child's mind, the fairy tales untold.
