What my children say |

What my children say His bearded head rests on his chest Like an egg on a feathered nest. Moving hairs in a gentle flow Like wind blowing feathery snow. His eyelids work in active REM Phantoms objects moving them. Behind each lid is scenery A fantasy in greenery. Who knows the Camelot in store? Who knows which Gweniveer or more? Who knows the heart in freedoms fly? Who knows what love has caught his eye? He is a knight on lovers quest, With favor flying from his crest. He sits his horse in rhythmic beat. And all the world is at his feet. He's Galahad with all his air And never ever left his chair. |
