On Carousel’s Sweet Ride

Swirling enchanted alabaster skies

In trembling voice a June berry sighs

In the fragrance of a black velvet rose

With wonders how the seasons grow

Hovering on the carousel’s sweet ride

My horse bounding meadows in stride

Painted gold yarrow’s drifting dance

Now summer’s gone in happenstance

Nights of the soft sensual lilac mist

In dreamish warm colors gently kissed

I’m lifted now on those golden wings

Soaring on childhood’s whispered swing

Starlight, star bright, every star align tonight

When they ignite, bring every dream in sight…

Your 'dreamish' word fits so wonderfully well, truly magical! Your poetry offers differences. rainbows and unicorns and all things on another plain. Your mind must fly every so often, Owl!

Always happy to cheer an old friend. Must get the Cafe's Christmas collaboration organised soon. Yes? Take care of yourself please.

I wish I may, I wish I might.....dream in wonderland every night! The air has become so breezy and the night quiet but wonderland spirals in warm delight.

Now that's a wish I hope is fulfilled every night. So thankful to have the queen coming near. :)
