[bodytext] => You may think me foolish writing this poem But this is what lies in my head shaped dome So please sit and listen to my rhymes And you will hear my soft blown chimes We dream of lands we can never know Where tales are tall and fairies glow Where men come down chimneys into our home And the language of elves is written in chrome Sirens sing their fate full song To sailors who to home they long All the souls plenty with love And ghouls befriending the dove With a giant upon a bean stalk And trolls in which the mountains they walk Wonders are out there And secrets they stay for not all is fair This land is so small and we grow Out of this land we can never know These lands are of which we dream For tales are small and fairies lose their gleam And the man is lost and the chimney is absent And the word of elves is spent Sirens sing for the sailor’s death Temptation is what they chose along with the loss of breath Not all the souls are glad to live And terror is what ghouls give No room for plants or abnormalities And trolls locked up without any keys Ugly or beautiful truth is there And light alone tells no lie and is hence so fair [comments] => 0 [counter] => 144 [topic] => 19 [informant] => clandestine [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 2 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => InspirationalPoems )
