Quatrains
A chapter in the book Luna's Form Poetry
The Land of Sleep
To Mickey, with love.
Was "Once Upon a Time," you see,
the words my mother read to me.
Oh, they contained such magic then,
With fairies flying 'round the glen.
A castle, stately, in the sky
would come to life as soon as I
had closed my eyes and gone to sleep;
my dreams were powerful and deep.
The mistress of the castle, she
awaited me to come and see
what she was spinning on her wheel ~
gossamer dresses, how genteel.
Lord of the Night was always there
protecting us; we had no cares.
Let dragons come; he'd slay them fast,
his legendary courage cast.
No, those are dreams I'll ne'er forget,
and more are left to happen yet.
The Land of Sleep is where I'll be
if in the night you search for me.
