![]() Castle Of Fun Part 1 of 3 Morning Anxiously waiting in line to leave all our troubles behind Entering the castle of fun with a dear one, whom I loved Never knew it’d be the last time, for fun and laughter we’d partake *** The draw bridge opened on time Looked down at swans swimming below A refreshing sight to start the morn Before entering the castle to see and hear what laughter and fun it would bring We entered that morn with the excited crowd Thrilled with thoughts of the sites and rides within Listening to the trotting of the horses hooves Taking us in the carriage down park avenue Dropping us off at the start of the shops Of freshly made candy, souvenirs and magical stores thought we’d shop before we left the castle that eve We walked down the main street taking in all the view Theaters, cafes and bars that lined the street Many people strolling along whistling and humming Each having a smile, no frowns where to be found As they listened to the music played by the bands Surrounded by love and laughter each step of the way We walked down a cobblestone street Entered the café for pancakes and bacon strips Amused at the pancakes, designed like tigers or a mouse Enjoying the start of a wonderful morning Smiling, talking with people like we had known them for years Sitting back relaxing, enjoying the company of strangers at ease Cameras were flashing everywhere Artist were painting pictures of children’s faces in the bodies of silly looking animals While other artists were painting on children’s faces So many amusing and delightful things to see On our way to the amusement park that morn Standing in lines conversing with all nationalities Some wearing their traditional clothing of their land Passing time waiting to ride all the rides offered We were in the land of kiddies rides, we road each and every one From carousels, to riding ships in the dark twinkling night It was fun to be in a frame of a child’s mind that morn___ Twinklewriter 4-22-08 |
