Dreams of Neverland: Journey to Neverland (Free verse) by TLRufener
I looked down upon the city
As it slept soundly below,
The lights twinkled and glittered
As if they were stars upon the snow.
The city grew smaller
As we flew upward into the sky,
And as the noises and lights faded
The clock-tower quietly chimed.
Stars surrounded us against a smooth background
Of deep dark midnight blue,
As the shimmering stars twinkled around us,
I knew all my dreams were about to come true.
As we neared the twinkling star,
His smile seemed to glow.
He said to me laughing,
âHold on to my hand and do not let go.â
On a trusting whim I held on
Like it was my lifesâ last night,
As we raced off towards the star
And were surrounded by a pink light.
The wind blew back my hair
As he smiled with great joy,
âYou can tell me your stories forever,
And also the Lost Boys.â
Out of the light
Came the most amazing scene;
Flower gardens, mountain paths,
A mermaid lagoon, and a pirate ship on the sea.
The cold crisp wind of home
Had long since melted away.
In this beautiful land of dreams,
It was the morning of a summer day.
I laughed with him as our journey
Came to a breathtaking end.
I was there next to Peter Pan
Gazing in awe at Neverland.
