''Sandusky nights ( a dreamland fairytale)'' Poem, by willyweed, at My poetic side

Meanwhile;

In dreamland the fairy-tales are in danger!

The dream meanies are on the loose.

They've scambled Humpy-dumpy

And they've kidnapped Mothergoose.

So meet me in Sandusky or somewhere in between

It's a covert operation, so come by submarine.

The shadows will be trailing, they will follow you around

Stay below the water until the sun goes down

There is danger in the darkness, there is danger all around

In the service of the Sandman, we are duty bound

So meet me in the middle, or somewhere in between

Meet me in Sandusky we have to save the dream

The shadows will be fading, mingling with the light

Stay below the water don't surface 'till tonight

There is danger in the darkness, there is danger everywhere

They've woken Sleeping Beauty, and cut Rapunzel's hair

So meet me in Sandusky, or somewhere in between

It's a sad, sad situation, when you don't have a dream

The shadows have all gone now, there's nothing left but hope

Meet me in Sandusky and raise the periscope

There is danger in the darkness there is danger all around

The princesess is still sleeping in Cinderella's gown.

In dreamland, fairy-tales are dying!

And it makes the children cry

I don't know if we can save them

I just know we have to try.
