My mind is like a playground

By Tracey Curtis Apr 8, 2015

MY MIND IS LIKE A PLAYGROUND

My little fingers hurt me
I’m writing everyday
Some times its hard to put in words
The things I want to say

There’s such a lot that’s going on
Inside my little head
I even dream about the words
When I’m a sleep in bed

My mind is like a playground
It’s a happy place to be
It’s a wonderland of magic
It’s the world of fantasy

A roller-coaster dream land
A fairground ride of fun
With chocolate tress and sugar bees
And candy coated sun

It’s like a secret doorway
To the world of make believe
Were dreams become reality
Sometimes its hard to leave

Although I am Dyslexic
My brain works really fine
I put the words together
To make my poems rhyme

It’s not that hard not really
It’s just music of the mind
I drift away on notes I play
And it helps me to unwind

There’s another world of wonder
Behind the eyes we see
It’s the mystery world of dreamers
And my world of poetry
