Wendy's Song

 

Traveling on moonbeams

trailing the stars

fairy dust encompassing

heads, legs and arms.

Flying high above the clouds

soaring like a bird

wind whistling through my hair

breathing not a word.

Far below the land is lush

with waterfalls galore.

Small boys running in a rush,

young men nevermore.

As we descend they gather ‘round

and gaze upon my face.

And as my arms encircle them

my heart is filled

with grace.

 

Never Never Land:” Second star to the right

and straight on ‘til morning.”

Peter Pan was one of my favorite stories growing up. I envied Wendy for she was so lucky to be part of a place where innocence and childhood were safe and never-ending.
What I wouldn't give to travel on moonbeams and soar above the clouds!
Your poem brings back so many memories. Dear memories. The child within is clapping her hands excitedly! She is thrilled to be remembered:)

I am so glad to have brought back this beautiful memory and awakened the inner child in you. Your words touch my heart!

Beautiful!
If you find that Never-Never land, do remember me, dear Dara.

[Dara]

my Irish heritage lures me to Fairies (i have one tattooed on me arm ;) and my favorite dreams are those of flying (wish i dreamed more of them) your poem refreshes me, invigorates the child in me ..so thank you for that .. when i was a very young man Peter Pan was an annual showing (the play, not the movie) with Mary Martin as the Pan ... i never missed it ... it was years after it stopped showing that i found out Peter was girl ... :)

Thank you so much E. I highly recommend watching the movie "Finding Neverland" with Johnny Depp. The story behind the story is heartwarming. I must say I always knew Peter was a girl but was a little disappointed. The romantic in me wanted Peter and Wendy to fall in love :-)
