There’s a camouflaged and secret road That leads to a very special place, Where, from the trees, honey-like sap flowed, And wild juicy berries filled each space. Lemonade ran from a hidden spring, And candy canes grew along its banks. Leaves in the breeze like carillons ring, As sweet-seeking insects all give thanks. A profusion of flowers abound, With petals that taste of peppermint, Rocks made of chocolate can be found, And, of licorice scent, there’s a hint. It’s here that ice cream will never melt, And one can’t name every flavor. Grass is the softest you’ve ever felt, Dandelions’ taste is to savor. I’m afraid it’s a place you won’t find, For the secret road is well concealed. Yet, if you picture it in your mind, All its pleasures will then be revealed. ~ RickMack (jotoma@bellsouth.net) July 2004 BACK http://graphicsbymarilyn.com Check these out: Ms Emily Remini-Scents Bluebird Peering TomCat's Anniversary You When Flowers Blossom..
