We wanted to dance in the woods that day
We wanted to dance in the woods
and run, gambol and play
But the dance came to me
in the way of the Fair
so we danced in the sun
and we danced in the air
Up, up it went -
in the heat of the day
and as afternoon came
more of my friends I heard say;
I want to dance too
in the sun and the air
I want to dance too
and do away with all care
Carefree, we danced,
in the sun and the moon
as the Fair waved goodbye and said;
I'll see you all soon
We danced and we pranced
and we chanced all of our luck
as our faces turned into a smile
and our happiness stuck
We'd never go home
without happiness in the room
for we knew that the Fair
would come again soon
And when the Fair came
we would dance in the sky
and spend all our days
oh so happy - on high.

With my head in the sky and my wings in the air, I try to spend my spare time at the footy (AFL in Australia) Go Pies! – and valuable hours with family and friends. Otherwise I’ll have pen in hand and notebook at the ready for those insightful snippets that dream up a poem.
I contribute to Cosmofunnel where you’ll find a guided universe of poetry and art.
