Peaceful streams of bliss filled
Dreams float carelessly into
The seas of once upon a time
Where the stories that are told
By care free hearts are wishes
Dropped into the wishing well
On the wings of snow white doves
Carried away by the sandman on
A journey to where all wishes
Come true and anything is possible
If you believe in faeries and click
Your heels together three times
All the while reciting the lines
"There's no place like home"
Home where fresh baked apple
Pies sit cooling on the window sill
And you sit on the bank of a
Creek kicking your feet in the
Shallow water as the scent
Of that pie is carried to
You on the warm summer breeze
And as you lay back on those prickly blades
Of grass contemplating how best to
Sneak a piece of that pie before dinner
You catch site out of the corner of your
Eye something to make you forget that pie
And you spend the rest of a lazy afternoon
Chasing after an old bullfrog till day light wanes
And you suddenly remember that pie!
You race home just in time to
See your mother pulling a roast
From the oven and your father
Washing his hands Ma calls to you
To come set the table and
Wash up or you'll have none of
That pie you been thinking on
Ever since that smell wafted
Over to you on the breeze
Dinner at your house is a
Family affair and you
Listen as ma and pa talk
Over the happenings of the day
And you know there is no place
You'd rather be than home!
