Neverland.

You rescued me

from a dark damp cave

and taught me how to fly,

took me to a fantasy world

high in the starlit sky.

We flew by a magic moon

evaded captain Hook,

running from our shadows

at times afraid to look.

Today thoses shadows sing and dance

to the whimpsical tune of love,

while Tinkerbell sprinkles fairy dust

as she hoovers just above.

I'll stay with you forever

in this your Neverland

we'll fly together and linger

in loves make believe land.

This was such a delight to read this morning. I love the rhyming. This one brought a smile. Brought back many wonderful childhood memories. We can't wait to grow up and then we look back and long for the innocence of childhood. Thank you for sharing your talent. Bless you, Sandy and

Very moving...
I love the easy flow here of melodious and merry rhyme, almost like an adult fairy tale with a happily-ever-after ending! Best of luck in this contest!! You have my vote!!! Peace and love, Cyn

Hmmm, very nice, deep, painfully beautiful. A lost childhood memory and trying to chase it down. Running awayu and getting lost in this make believe world. Beautiful/...
