Mindgames
If I think back to the time
that I am fond of most
I think it would have to be
drifting in the boat
peacefulness was abundant
on that summer day
floating about aimlessly
playing funny games
Looking to the sky I seen
a hole right through the clouds
so I fantasized that it was
a time warp here and now
I wondered if I would get sucked in
if I went below
but all that came through it was
a lovely rainbow
it came down to the surface
and from there it did grow
so I thought that maybe this mirage
wouldn't go
but it faded quickly
into the growing mist
there I saw a dragon
its tail slowly flicked
as it let out a deep roar
from its parted lips
I daresay I was mesmerized
by this very sight
this is why to this day
I shudder with the fright
of seeing something so unique
it cannot be explained
I can only chalk it up
to the games the mind can play.
