[hometext] => This is a poem about how my imagination used to be when I was reading, when I was little.
[bodytext] => The Cover ~~~~~~~~~ In a fairytale land I can see myself So full of hope and light I'm in a book from upon my shelf. I've read this story many times But this time's not the same. I'm in a place of bright pink skies And clouds of purple rain. I feel really at home here I wish I could stay forever But I know this fantasy will end As soon as I close the cover. I know I have to go home So before I close the cover I will walk around this beautiful land To see what things I may discover. As I'm walking down a deep blue path I see a wonderful thing off to the side A big lake made of dandelions And a pale orange bunny trying to hide. "My, what a strange place this is!" With unicorns of heights above my head. I'd hate to let this journey end here But it's time for me to go to bed. As I close the cover I wondered what the rest of this land was like So I tucked myself in and close my eyes And dreamt about that place all night. My dreams were pretty vivid But I want to read the book until the end So tomorrow night before I go to sleep I'll be reading it again.
