The light from tower’s windows gleam
Take heed, the house, isn’t what it seems
In fact, it is more a nightmarish dream
When it drifts into your slumber

She floats atop the castle crown
This spirit, donned, in ethereal gown
So painful, the look, her face, a frown
As she seeks to disencumber

Full moon lights her ghostly frame
The raven flies, her soul to claim
Dare not point, nor place the blame
When demons, pursue, outnumber

For there is no human left in she
Life’s torture, all lies, brought insanity
This spirit, longing, to be set free
To leave this world, in pieces, asunder

A story was told, by a little girl
To her teddy bear, named Harvey
A tale about a wonderful place
You could say, it was, quite marvey!

She told him, of a land, so far
Where people played all day
Beneath the shining sunlit sky
Among the golden rays.

And as she told her story
Harvey smiled, as teddy’s do
He knew the perfect ending
To make Junie smile, too.

With a wink of his eye, enchanted
He sparked the pages, bright
With bursts of yellow sunbeams
Oh, such a fabulous sight!

Junie started to giggle
She was happy as could be
Harvey, he held a secret
Yes! A magical bear, was he

A blend of delicacy and might

I bow toward the rising sun

Bending with the gentle breeze

The morn and I are one

Warmth, from every angle, breathes

As leaves turn brilliant green

My petals open in graceful dance

And I create a beautiful scene

I’ve traveled a long road
To reach my favorite place
I stopped to rest a moment
Found myself on Moon’s face

He didn’t seem quite happy
After all, I dimmed his light
I promised him, “Don’t worry!”
“I’ll soon be tucked in, tight!”

But first I have to cross the bridge
And make sure I don’t fall through
Taking baby steps, and carefully
Is what I’ll need to do

I can see my teddy bear
Waiting patiently for me
Atop my pillow, on my bed
Tis where I want to be

So we can snuggle closely
Perhaps, to dream of Mars
Where imagination can run free
Fast asleep, beneath the stars
