The Child Dreams

Long ago in times of old
When knights in armor were strong and bold
When fairies lived beneath the trees
And flew about on bumblebees
They bathed and swam in moonlight shafts
And for miles around, you heard their laughs

In toadstools large and small
Are tiny lights and chimneys tall
Fiery dragons roar through caves
Sending out a mist-like haze
Fat stout trolls beneath bridges lie
Waiting to grab whatever comes by

Think I know what such a place
Where spiders spin pure webs of lace
I will take you there with me
And together forever we will be
In the land of no return
Like peter pan we live and learn
