Lucky the invisible floating walrus once caught an awful virus from a piece of bubblegum but he was not dumb so he ran away to play all day away from evil clappers but then again (dun dun dun) lucky couldbe a kidnapper!!!


A wisp of moonlight lingers faintly in my soul;
haunting melody hanging outside
the open window.
somewhere,
in the pale beyond,
past the window-
Splendid Wonder dances
as the crickets sing harmony,
stirring and pleading me to follow.
On the edge of decision
I hesitate-
smelling freedom in the summers night air,
filtering through the screen.
A firefly breeze ruffles my hair.
I can wait no more.
The moonlight wisps murmur excitedly
as I crawl out the window,
into the arms of the trusting oak.
Upwards I climb,
hugging sturdy branches-
higher with each step-
Until- do I dare go up any farther?
I shiver in the utmost
branches, reaching-
reaching-
for the distant silver Moon;
who is spreading out her
glowing wings
into the night sky.
I sit contentedly in a familiar crook
of the branches.
Full of joy-
Quivering in delight
Patiently listening
to what the crickets
and the wisps of moonlight
will share with me tonight.

One of my favorite things to do is sit by my open window late on a summers night. This is a poem about my thought about that I guess. I'm not too good at writing poetry so enjoy even if it's not perfect.
