LOST WONDERS by Sue
Time has run the past is gone and with it many wonderful things. Bright Centaurs, wonderous Unicorns and fairies with shimmering wings. Griffons and Sayters are no longer to be seen. Nor are the shining Dragon, the clever Elves and Sprites, The Mermaids and Selkies. All are gone from this worlds scene. All magical beasts and Elvish feasts have faded with the past. And yet....are they all truly gone? Never again to be seen? Or do they still exist somewhere outside of dreams? Do they hide in some parallel world that's close but simply out of sight? And there the Giants,Pegasus and all the rest dance to the glorious sound of Pan's pipes . And the great Serpents still swim the seas and Dragons rule the skies? That is the world I wish to enter. Though it be far away and truly no better than the one I live in now. But oh! How wonderful,exciting and colorful it must be! Just imagine a land where MAGIC truly works! And adventure and danger can lurk behind every rock and tree. And in the very air above and on and under the sea. That is the world I'm going to, just you wait and see. One fine day I'll find that shining gateway and step through Never again on this world to be seen. But until that day the time I must just while away. Playing my part in this worlds' many scenes And have to settle for short visits there Only....SIGH.... in my dreams.
