Take my hand and follow me
Stepping through the mirror
And let me show you inside my world
A place where the word is king
Where poets and authors are free to roam
This is a magical world
Where imagination rules
Would you care to roam through a forest green
And dance with sunbeams as they filter through the treetops
Following butterflies and unicorns while they stroll together
As they discuss which of them the girls like more
Or do you care for all that is dark
Skies that shake with thunder
With only lightning to show you the way
As fear and foreboding grip you tight
You never know you might even see The Man in Black
As he walks amongst the dead
Whilst beckoning to those that dream
Remember though as you hurry along
Never to look back
Yes, my world is strange
It alters day by day
If not minute by minute
Allow yourself to fall into the page
As you swim amongst the words
I promise to keep you safe
Let my words soothe your mind,
Your heart even your soul
Let me take you back in time
And far beyond the stars
Let me show you
All that is mystical, fantastical and more
Let me share my world, my life
These words that flow inside me
To me they are all that I am
From my heart and soul
To the quill and keyboard
Laid bare for you to see
The ultimate gift I can give you all
Is to share what is to me a priceless treasure
So my love, take my hand and walk with me
Via fields of grain and over mountains tall
We shall sail restless oceans and cross deserts vast
Here in my world, you can be a king or a queen
Ogre, goblin even a dragon if you want
Though they tend to come in every colour but green
So..what will it be tonight
A poem or a fable
Let know and I shall spin you such a tale
One that leaves you wanting more
Or shall I let the gates open,
And fill a page with words straight from the heart
Words that bring you to the edge of tears
Only to be replaced in the end by laughter
My quill and ink await you
I might be a sad and fallen angel
Cursed forever to feel too much
To know only pain and sorrow
But more than that
I am a humble poet, an eternal dreamer your lover, your brother, your very best friend.
