A plough drags stars across firmament’s field,
Occasionally drops one, so Heaven may yield
A soul on the earth that once lit up the night,
Now cascades brightness and life-giving light.
Tell me about it, these magical ways,
How earth meets the heavens and wonder portrays.
Tell me about it in songs that you sing,
In stories once written to entertain kings,
In poems and in quotes that entertain all.
Tell me about it, these words so enthral.
A trawler drags nets through oceans and seas,
Harnesses life from the depths to release
A multitude of dreams and millions of wishes
Of a world where mermaids live, conversing with fishes.
Tell me about it, these magical ways,
How minds mingle with folklore and nights become days.
Tell me about it in pictures and books,
In animations and films I once mistook
As reality melded with poetic allusion.
Tell me about it, wondrous dreams of confusion.
A jet drags clouds from Olympus’ peak,
Reveals gods and goddesses playing chess and who speak
To a world of mere pawns in a royal array,
Defending battles that rage, all part of the play.
Tell me about it, these magical ways,
How heaven, earth and oceans intermingle in plays.
Tell me about it, the comic and sad,
Tragedies and fantasies, some semblance of mad
Influence from lunar, the tricks of the mind.
Tell me about it, we’ll seek and we’ll find.
Garner your dreams, let spirit drag
Through mind, soul and ether, all memories you’ve had.
Mix the concoction as a magical potion,
Spread it on thickly, full of flighty emotion.
Tell me about it, I love all that stuff.
Of flight, love and fantasy, never enough.
Tell me about it, imagination unfold,
In mind and in spirit may we never grow old
Though in body we rest as the years take their toll.
Tell me about it. Dreams are our goal.
