Walkin on Air
Dreamflight
A sleeping knight
living in the pages
history dictates from Middle-Ages
awaited is by his retinue,
who ensures all honor due
is duly paid with high respect
and witnessed is by the elect
surrounding him from head to toe
especially Pinocchio;
a Cheshire cat's purring fades in and out
like some old soldier down with gout,
around the world in 80 days
Pass-partout defies delays:
a jester climbs ballerina nigh to sit,
nobody minds this sweet dimwit;
boyish dreams weave magic carpets
on which to fly beyond ruin mundane
and meander into many brooklets
gilded with promise of joy Elaine.
"Sleep on my brave and handsome knight
let none distract you from your flight…"
