Adventures

Caught in time

She wondered through the vines

Life passed her by

Seeking out moments

That would open her eyes

As tree stumps

Lay along grassy plains

She twirled in it as it rained

Lily pads poked through

Nature threw at her what she never knew

As she danced along

Singing her song

Something made her stop

Her heart went to a melted flop

Beautiful waterfalls surrounded this land

Wanting to touch them

She held out her hands

As thirst filled her worn out breath

She was warm and clammy

She wanted to feel the wet

As she drew herself closer

To the beauty before her eyes

Something caught her eye

As she tip toed closer than before

There was an old wooden door

In the middle of the waterfall

For all the world to see

She thought to herself

How could this possibly be

Venturing closer again

Her body was wet now

The water filled her up

To her waist somehow

Holding out her hand to reach to the door

As she touched it

It opened up

A voice came from within

Please come in

So she did and said

Who are you

Where do you come from

Where are you

I cant see you

Where do you belong

Questions my dear

Come over here

Sit on this coloured stone

While I get some poems

I know that you like to read

But like to write even more

I know that you don’t believe

That your not really sure

Come with me take my hand

I will bring you with me

Where you can sit

And think for awhile

While you can stop and breath

So small but yet so clever

You really are so cute

I never ever trusted frogs

Until I met you

Too many I have kissed before

They always proved me right

But you are so much different

Your fun you are a delight

It is time for you to go right now

Can I see you again

Of course you can my precious one

Next time bring some paper and pen

We will talk about our interests

And see what comes of it all

If nothing else we have had some fun

We have surely had a ball

So fly away back home my dear

Out into the starry night

Do not be afraid

My lightening bugs will be your light

Safe home my dear until we meet again

And don’t forget I know

I will bring some paper and a pen
