All you need is a campfire to tell your stories around, to the eager ears of grandchildren, I have fond memories on my grandfather doing that...wonderful images to this imaginative write William
love and peace, Carole
The thought of sharing imagination with grandchildren, and imagining the awe on their faces, is very evocative. Picture-perfect. A little editing/relook at the poem would make it really something for the grandchildren to treasure.
This is so very true. My mother always said there was a visitor in the back bdroom. His name was Charlie and he really wasn't a visitor but a ghost. When there was an unexplained noise she always blamed it on Charlie. Fact is her dog, "Hoss" wouldn't ever go down the hallway past her bedroom. To this day "Charlie" lives at grandma's house. Your poem is a neat folk tale yet to develope for your grandchildren. I really like the idea of your thing behind the tree.

Your imagination is in full bloom, William - and it sounds like you have the perfect spot to work with. You also sound very much like my grandfather, who always knew how to weave the perfect tale for his grandkids!
Wonderful, William!! I have no swamp out back (at least not unless it has rained a lot!), but I will have to practice imagination like yours when I relax back there. I usually just watch the birds and critters, but your idea sounds like more fun! The imagination is boundless, without limits only of what our minds place on it.
Captivating and mesmerizing imagery in this one William. Has a magical mood to it for the kids.Great poem! I have a similar thing going on from my porch as I survery the scene all around me from the second floor I see mountains woods, besides the busy streets with restaurants and malls. A lot to see and imagine.
Colorful interactive book for teaching children the ABC's using God’s creation of the animal kingdom and featuring some of His most exotic creature. More importantly the book segues into the very special love God has for children.
