Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time in a land far away

I gaze out at the calm crystal sea

The soft gentle breeze tousles my hair

When I hear footsteps approach from behind me

~

I hold up my long dress to get up to look

Then turn around to see who is there

My heart leaps, I blush ferociously

As our eyes meet and then locks in a stare

~

Stood before me is him, the guy of my dreams

As he slowly walks over towards me

His eyes on mine, he takes hold of my hand

Then I melt in his arms uncontrollably

~

All of a sudden I find myself falling

As I tumble back into reality

I crash to the ground with an almighty bump

Away from my romantic sweet fantasy

~

When not in the imaginary world of a writer

Creative me is in real life at home

The mundane jobs that go on forever

As I tackle them all on my own

~

Then tomorrow begins another day

When I return to my laptop to type

When the fantasy world kicks in again

For the lady who just loves to write
