Take Me To The Moon

Short story poems for children - Bedtime Story

*Dedicated to my son Easton Pittman "

 May your imagination run wild & your 

dreams be fulfilled.*

_________________________

Up, up, up and away we go,

Upwards to the moon 1, 2, 3 in a

 row!

Flying so high past planets and stars,

"Mother, did you know it would be this

 far?”

"Yes my dear the moon is far,

that is why we cannot drive the car.”

"Father, Father do you see the moon?”

"Yes son, we will be there soon.”

My eyes are gleaming with delight and

 excitement, as earth behind us began

 to grow silent.

As we traveled so high up into the sky,

The moon began to grow, bigger and

 bigger.

Finally! We have reached the moon!

I just knew we would be there soon!

We bounced and sang in the craters

 about,

But when it became time to leave, I

 started to pout.

"Mother, mother, why must we leave?”

"Why dear we must go home, please

 do not grieve.”

So we went down downwards back to

 earth,

Past the planets and stars once again.

Once we reached home my mommy

 tucked me in. “Mother, mother can

 we do that again?”

"Yes dear, we can. But this was only

 but a dream. I know it felt real or so it seemed.”

I turned out my light and thought to

 myself,

"My oh my, what an awesome night.”

The End.

Nice rhyme scheme, the emotional sentimental feel is engaging while taken on a fantasy whimsical joyride. A pleasure to read I give it five out of five Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap! Clap!
