There is still a place inside of me,
A place of joy and splendid things.
Dreams of kingdoms golden light.
Dark is gone there is no night.
Where hurt is just a foggy memory,
And pain replaced with a white knight.
A place of smiles and laughter,
Maids to find a happily ever after.
Where love is true and cause no harm,
In this place in lovers arms.
Rain to wash away yesterday,
Sun to grow and songs to sing.
Little girl dreams inside of me,
That’s where I wish I could be.

This reminds me of a movie I really like watching.
My wife's favorite movie is Ever After with Drew Barrymore and Anjelica Houston.

I liked this piece quite a lot, the image works well, it steers you in the direction of the poem right from the start.
"in this place in lovers arms" don't know quite why, but i like that line, it just sort of jumps at me.
sorry for the late judgement, and thanks for the entry in the contest -
A very nice fantasy!
I think and believe that every girl has this dream or fantasy till she grows up she continues to dream till she gets married.. then BAM! dreams are gone! so she creates a fantasy world for herself alone..
sorry I got carried away.. I have my world already
Keep on writing, I loved this poem!

Very good.. sounds like a fun place

I want to be there too! Let's go lol. Anyways, just a few technical things which I'm sure were just typos. "Were" I'm assuming should be "Where" and "fogy" should be "foggy". I think a lot of people have that place inside of them that they'd like to find their way back to.

great work!
i love how you describe those naive thoughts every innocent little girl carries. i don't think we'll ever fully let go of those dreams, but it's a nice place to go back to every now and then ^ ^
great write and it's really easily read, which is great :] beeeeautiful!
