Inside the box

Inside the box

A Poem by unclecharlie

I sit up to the bar and order a couple of shots

Looking for the Goodie Box I have a key for the locks

There it is out of the corner of my eye

Rushing over there must give it a try

Walk on in and find me a seat

This where the imagination and reality could meet

What happens is all up to you

This is where dreams and fantasies  come true

I ordered another drink and looked for something to roll

Back to the days of my twenties and it's starting to show

Pulled out the lighter to give it a flick

Couldn't even get a spark out of that damn Bic

But it's the land of dreams so we can get carried away

I heard a gentle voice didn't understand what they'd say

But they light a candle and slid it right to me

Their silhouette was all I could even see

The place was full and everyone was moving about

Each going with what their dream was about

I've now been here for a day maybe two

With a good imagination there's always something to do

So believe if this box you should ever see

Step right in and for a bit simply be free

It's a world that's completely all about you

Your dream are the ones that will be coming true!
