“Hey dad, is it kind of a roller coaster ride? It feels like the butterflies are flying in my stomach! It is so windy. I can feel the cool fresh air on my cheeks. I feel so excited! I have goose pimples all over my body!
Hey dad, what is this smell? It seems like it must have just rained. I can smell the wet land. You know, this smell gives birth to a new life in me! I feel filled with some magic in my chest when I take a deep breath. This magic potion creates a spell on my mind! It takes me to a world of fantasy.
Hey dad, what is this sound? Is it the sound of the leaves of the trees? Are trees also dancing in the wind? How do they look? How tall are they? Are they beautiful? Which colours are they?
I wish I could see a tree
Run on this earth so free
I wonder, in thunder,
I could fly on – one two three…
I want to be a galloping horse
There is some unknown force
It helps me, it guides me,
With strong energy source…
I wonder what’s this smell
It has a magical spell
On a stick of broom, I go whroom whroom,
To places you can tell…
On such a beautiful day
One more thing I will say
The song I hear, of birdie near,
Who’s passing by my way…
I wish that I could drive you
Show you world from my view
By my side, you’ve stood with pride,
Hey dad, I so much love you…
Hey dad, is this kind of a thrilling ride or a fairytale world about which mom told me the stories? Hey dad, are there fairies around? Hey dad, how would those fairies be like? Hey dad, was mom like a fairy? I wish I could reach her and fly on a count of – one two three...”

One of the finest pieces of literature I have read. Beautiful, poignant and moving. I liked the structure of the poem. But what I liked even more was the candid honesty in thoughts. Exceptional clarity and simplicity. Keep writing :)I have added you on my blog roll.
