Do you know the time of night, ...just before the dawn? When parents sleep and children dream, ...of fairies on the lawn? When night and day are one the same, ...and dreams come ever true? Then take my hand and fly with me, ...up to the heavens blue, Amongst the stars and comets bright, ...unto the land of Dream, Where hate and fear are unknown words, ...and love is all supreme, Where pain and drugs are make believe, ...and unicorns are real, Where happiness and tenderness, ...are all you ever feel, As butterflies and turtle doves, ...frolic in the sun, Puppy dogs and teddy bears, ...through verdant meadows run, Little boys and little girls, ...playing hide and seek, With elephants and platypus, ...careful! do not peek! Lancelot and Guenevere, ...ride on their horse snow white, Seeking out their Camelot, ...beneath moon's golden light, "All Aboard," conductor yells, ...soar on our train with us, We're never late, because time flies, ...atop of Pegasus, Up above a purple kite, ...dances on the wind, As up ahead a leprechaun, ...jigs around the bend, The engine's wheels go clickety-clack, ...upon the licorice track, As we head to land of Dream, ...we're never coming back. Where floods and storms just don't exist, ...and clouds are sweet whipped cream, Will you take your hand in mine, ...and fly to land of Dream? |

Quite a flight of fancy. Enjoyed "Happy people have no history" - French Proverb |

What a fun night write! "Where hate and fear are unknown words, ...and love is all supreme, Where pain and drugs are make believe, ...and unicorns are real, Where happiness and tenderness, ...are all you ever feel," That's my kind of dream world. Now, how do we make this real? |

Excellent - It seems to me that dreamland is one of the few safe places to be these days... Clicking my heels three times here... |
