A simple four stanza story-poem done in couplets. Yes, I’m on a rhyme spree lately
Life can be a Fairy Tale
I felt a weight tied to my wings
By Congressmen and legal things
By many tiresome grueling fights
Important things, like civil rights
But somewhere in my head I knew
I had to see the good things, too
And so I explored midday Sun
While walking with my Cherished One
On forest paths I’d laugh, she’d sing
We shared the joy of early Spring
The dead and brown was turning green
That here – in March! – is rarely seen
At dusk is when the Magic came
The Heavens called us both by name
We took to air and traveled far
Taking the time to kiss a Star
Before we gently floated down
Still high (though we were on the ground)
Once home I set to work, the deed:
Searching for a fine tale to read
An adventure full of action
I thought would bring satisfaction
But while I searched the vast bookshelf
I realized…
That I had written one myself
Read the list and see more of the Rally
