A Teasing Fantasy

I’ve got a smile on my face

A silly thought that I chase

A fantasy in my mind I create

With it, my fears, I sedate

An illusion of a land better than Oz

With the humming of a tune that once was

A mere old memory of a child now grown

Instantly settles in my mind as if it were carved in stone

I hear the pitter-patter of my heart

A sweet blissful feeling that won’t part

A flash of happiness renewed with every blink

With my breaths, the waves of tranquillity are in sync

A dewdrop of passion hangs from my lip

From it, a Jay takes its morning sip

Then flies around my mind, teasing my sentiments

Encouraging them to go places they usually wouldn’t
