Dream On Dear Child

Sailboat sailing on the wishes of a child
Dream On

 Cotton candy trails

Fluffy white clouds sail

On the wishes of a child

Sailing through the sea

Seeking adventure

Ahoy! A pirate ship ahead

Swords unsheathed

Soldiers jump aboard

Clashing steel sound

Hip hip hurrah

All is won 

The child giggles

All the while sleeping

A contented sigh

Escaping the lips

Of a sleeping child

Dream on

Dear Child

 

Sometimes, we see children dreaming in their sleep and wonder what is going on in their minds. They may just be dreaming.

This is a poem about the dreams of a child. An adventurous dream sailing at the behest of a child's wishes.

Dream on, dear child, dream on.
