Dreams Of Happiness

Have you ever closed your eyes, let imagination run
Taking you to places that are impossible but fun
Like floating on the air waves and reaching for the sun
Drifting ever upwards once your journey has begun

Soaring through the clouds and singing like a lark
Looking down below at the people in the park
Turning round the corners in in spiral like an arc
Hearing things below you like noisy dogs that bark

Catching hold of sunbeams, deflecting them below
Or holding on real tightly and feeling them grow
Reaching for the sunlight as you journey to and fro
Floating onwards drifting forwards never going slow

Standing in mid air now and looking all around
Listening real hard for any tiny sound
Looking far below at the ants upon the ground
Spinning ever upwards turning round and round and round

Flying like you're swimming using arms to do the crawl
Kicking with your feet to steer giving it your all
Winning your own race and feeling ten feet tall
Enjoying your sensations knowing you’ll never fall

Imagination can take you to happy times you see
Flying with the birds, being wild and free
All it takes is close your eyes and look and you will be
Transported on a journey to your fantasy like me
