Tiny Fascinations
and other nonsense at about midnight

As far back as I can remember, I have held fascinations. Somehow, those magical illusions have just "stuck there" like unwanted in-laws. My mind just can't seem to let them loose.
Mermaids for example. Amazing, mysterious, mystical creatures that don't seem to quite belong to (or in) the two worlds of which they can be "found."
Fairies. They would also fit in to a space that needed to be discovered by only the purest of hearts.
Musical notes. You know, the kind that bounce around outside of your head and make rhythmic movements in bold, unapologetic strokes.
Dew drops...upside down rain but very shy.
Peach color. Not orange and not pink. Soft, warm, inviting.
Puppy breath. Kind of stinky but not. Maybe I should smell once more to see if I like it before final judgment.
Tell me, please. Do you also share in fascinations?
