In the Land of Imagination
I wrote this ....this afternoon (12-14-12). Hope you enjoy it.
In the land of imagination (c) Vickey Stamps In the land of imagination, we sometimes, as children play sitting aside the cares of day, as to bed we go and lay no matter what the age we are, we can still like children be and hug our dolls or drive our trains and clap our hands in glee For in our dreams, it matters not, the aches and pains of life In the land of imagination, we are free from pain and strife In sleep we run on youthful feet, to greet the days of old Reviewing times of long ago, when we were young and bold When Mama and Papa guided us, we learned to laugh and play Teaching us of right and wrong, putting discipline in each day Loving and smiling was common. We found it a good thing They knew we would need all of that, for what life soon would bring We'd run to be first on a tire swing, or a swim at the swimming hole For morning would come fast enough, when adulthood was the goal So Trains, stay on your happy track, and toot a joyful sound Little girls grab your dolls. Take a ride, as the wheels go round and round For all too soon, we'll be grown-ups, and face another day Boys can be conductors and yell out .... "Get aboard! I say" Yes, in the land of imagination, we can become children once again And through a hurried night of sleep, we run, we laugh, we grin. |
Lovely. Where would we be without our wondrous imaginations?

Thanks so much for all the comments. I am so glad you liked it. A dear friend had a graphic she emailed to me. She asked me to write a short something real quick to go with it. She always takes my short stories and story/poems ...adds music and graphics and sends it out to an e-mail list she keeps of people that enjoy reading what I write. It goes out as an email with my name on it as the author. If you want to be added, send me a PM and I will give you my email address.
Hugs and thanks again. Vickey Stamps |
