There once was a breed
Of wild little things
Children of the forests
And mountain beings
Wild and untamed
They would prance and preene
Their laughter could be heard
In the meadows green
They would have dreams
Of unicorns and pixies
They would run barefoot
Chasing the butterflies
They were different
From other normal beings
People would sneer upon
These wild little things
They scared the people
Who couldn't dream
Because they had the power
To change life's stream
So they were hunted and locked
In the magic muting binds
And they went into hiding
Inside their minds...

What a gracious piece! I love the imagery you portrayed and I feel like the meaning is universal. We're always little dreamers wishing and hoping for so much more, but often times, the world is against us. Great job! 💖
Thank you so much for such kind words.. and yes you're right, the workd is not a friendly place for dreamers in my experience..
The last two stanzas really captured me and the words spoken could not be more true. It is an awful thing when one loses the ability to dream. This was a beautiful piece you’ve put together and I really enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing!
I'm really glad you like it. This piece is really special to me. Thankyou so much. It means a lot 🙂
