[hometext] => More for a child than about a child. Comments welcome
[bodytext] => Now you may think I am fibbing, But I tell you this is true. I just thought you should know, For it can happen to you too. I bought a little sailboat, And I headed for the sea, For all the fun adventures That were waiting there for me. Soon I couldn’t see Land from either side. I shed a tear or two Wishing for the tide. I came upon an island, Cold, scared, and all alone. It wasn’t ‘til the morning That I charted the unknown. I found a patch of daisies, And a dainty little stream. I tasted choconutties Covered in gooey gluey cream. Soon I got so sleepy That I settled for a nap. And I awoke to find A snickle in my lap. His eyes were like blueberries, And his skin was powder pink He had fuzzy purple hair, And he giggled with a wink. He motioned me to follow, And I could not resist Exploring the wild jungle Like gorillas in the mist. We came up to a cave, And he handed me a card. It said “Say the secret password, But you must think very hard.” Three guesses I received, And I looked about for help. “Bottleslingleberrysnout.” Dapper Dundledoos did yelp. The cave opened right up, And what a sight it was. Big bobble buildings were All covered in blue fuzz. And though we said no words, My guide made a hasty dash. How I knew I don’t know, But his name was surely Nash. I stood and watched in awe At the city down below. I was greeted with a feast By the lovely Princess Mo. The entire city came, And we waited for the king. The feast he did commence By a bell that he did ring. And afterwards we sang, And danced a jig or two. I shouted with a laugh “My arm is turning blue!” My hosts they did all snicker, For it was such a sight. The King was so impressed He made me a grand knight. He said that they would call If ever there was trouble. But now return to home, By cave and all its rubble. When I finally got home, And I saw my Mom and Dad. I gave them great big hugs For I’ve never been so glad! I cleaned up my dirty room, And I took out all the trash. And sometimes I still wonder, About my good friend Nash. I am sure that he is happy, And eating ringydams, Hopping through the forest On the Island of Shazam.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
