If You Believe

Don’t you wish that you could fly
above the clouds in the clear blue sky,
soaring with the angels near,
erasing all your worries and fear?

Wouldn’t it be amazing to swim
in the turquoise ocean just on a whim,
gliding with a friendly dolphin,
serenaded by an elegant violin?

Imagine skipping through a lush meadow
with the company of a vibrant butterfly show
or tip toeing amongst the glowing stars
to the music of strumming guitars

Close your eyes, twinkle your nose
Cross your arms, curl your toes
Blink three times, twirl around
Concentrate; okay, here goes…

  6. This is really lovely Lauren. It would be so lovely to do able to fly, or swim with the dolphins and not worry about everyday life. Just beautiful xx

    1. Thanks so much, Bianca! Your words are the reason for me wanting to write something magical like this…it would be wonderful, so keep dreaming and believing, my friend~xx

    1. Well, thank you, Binky…I’m glad you liked this, although, my imagination can’t compare with the awesome trips you’ve taken to the moon, but that’s what dreaming is all about, right? Your visit truly made my day and I hope you have a wonderful day, too! 🙂

    This is lovely! If only it’s THAT easy to REALLY be immersed in something magical and fantastical… Let me try now…

    *closes eyes, twinkles nose, crosses arms, curls toes, blinks three times, twirls, concentrates*

    Oh my, I feel like Samantha from Bewitched!

    1. I know…wouldn’t it be amazing if things were that easy? You made me smile and I loved Samantha in Bewitched! She was one of my inspirations for the nose twinkling! 🙂 Thanks so much, Rynna, for your wonderful comment!

  8. Blink three times. Curl your toes. I’ve got it all memorized – and it works. I’ve been flying with angels and swimming with dolphins. All I needed was the poetry. Beautiful Lauren. Virginia

  9. This is simply marvellous…yes, we should all close our eyes and let imaginations fly. Thank you Lauren, for the thoughts, words and imagery. Luv and hugz, Eric 🙂

      1. Christina loved it too. She looked over our shoulders while Emma and I were reading the poem. She’s been really busy this week in the real world but wanted to know what we were enjoying so much. After reading your poem she said, “she’s so good, I wish I were that good”. Those were her actual comments. Anyway universally your post was greatly enjoyed today in this household! Thanks again! 🙂

      2. Oh, Penny, thank you for sharing and please give Christina a big hug for me! Your complement was a perfect ending to my day! Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend! 🙂

    1. Thank you so much! This was fun to write, just very magical. I appreciate all your visits and I will be over your way this weekend…I’m always behind now in reading others work and it’s frustrating…anyway, thank you and have a wonderful Friday!
