SUMMERY DAYS

Playing in the fields of maze

The brightest of yellows

Like the sun kissed meadows

All in bloom where there is no more room

For flowers to grow

The field of daffodils still in bloom

The irises in their purple hues

Daisies made into chains

Children frolicking, leaping, everywhere

Lambs a gamboling with a spring in their legs

Jumping, bounding oh so happily

The sun kissed faces leaning to the sun

Whilst everyone is having fun

The sun is now at its highest, brightest

The heat all aglow with a hazy haze

Shimmering, glimmering across the land

The butterflies flitting from flower to flower

Oh such wondrous colours too

There blues, reds, oranges drinking the nectar

To bloom and grow

Oh such wondrous sights and sounds

On a beautiful summers day

MAGIC CARPET RIDE - Taken from the book of poems Simply Magical

MAGIC CARPET RIDE

Where the wind beneath the carpet is riding you high

Way up high with the birds and butterflies

The swallows and swifts

Swooping, diving to catch a small prey on the wing

There in the distance Swans on the wing too

Maybe off to warmer climates or just enjoying the view

The sky shining brightly hardly a cloud in sight

The sun rays gently, softly letting themselves be known

Oh such wondrous colours and a delight

Pinkish salmon, with a hint of yellow

But here you sit on your magic carpet

Smiling, smiling

With such wonder that is here and there

The ground and land beneath

Lush green meadows

Steep, steep hills and burrows

River and streams meandering

Twisting, turning, zigzagging

Through the fields, horses paddocks and pastures

Near and far

Oh such a sight before your eyes

The gentle breeze blowing through you hair

Purple rosebuds adorn and prettify your hair

As if you are a princess sitting there

Glancing at a kingdom, realm

Or is this just your world?

To live and dream

For once upon a time

MESSAGES FROM AFAR - taken from the book of poems (c) Simply Magical

MESSAGES FROM AFAR

On golden wings spread so wide

The dove and messenger flies by

It brings forth peace, love and happiness

Its graceful wings flapping without ease

The dove flies to the fair maiden

He has a message for her from lands far away

She holds out her hand so gracefully

So gently

And there before her eyes she sees

A boat afloat there in the distant seas

In the wings of the dove

The sun a glowing, shining brightly

The sea glimmering, shimmering so beautifully

The mountains as the background scenery

Tall and standing so strong

White snow peaks

All around in the sky are shooting stars

Stars to make a wish upon

Twinkling, blinking, shimmering

Every one of them flickering a message from the heavens above

Puffy white clouds scudding by

Oh why?

This is a starry, starry night!

But here anything can happen in a wondrous world like this

So full of happiness and bliss

A place of mystery, mysteries

Fairy tales and mystical stories

Oceans deep

Oceans wide

Oceans near and far

From top to bottom

Waves so high

Waves so low

Waves spraying

Waves as white as snow

Rolling

Tidal waves

White horses

Riding high

Dolphins riding the waves

Gliding

Sliding

Sashaying

Slithering

Frolicking

Out of danger

Hazards

Their reputations

Standings

Reputes

Characters

Hold no bars

They have been the saviors

Rescuers

Redeemers

Protectors

To all mankind

Stranded

Shipwrecked at sea

A guiding light

In the midst of the sea

In the darkest of nights

A beacon of light

And hope
