The Magic Roundabout
by adewpearl
We ride the magic roundabout as tunes of gay calliope, melodic and mellifluous, our circled path accompany. In shades of rainbow loveliness our mounts so rhythmic rise and fall, your lion with a goldspray mane, my bronze giraffe with neck so tall. As happy lights blink on and off around the roof and mirrored pole, we frolic on this carousel with no need felt to gain control. Tomorrow will be time enough to care for grim reality - for now on magic roundabout I'll spin with life's vitality. |
