Poem Artwork

 If fiddles were feathers, I’d tickle you a tune

If monkeys wore sweaters, it wouldn’t be June
If all of my problems were tiny and small
They’d go in a wagon for fairies to haul

If the sun came up on a foggy day
I’d call on the wind to blow it away
Giggles and grins would huddle and spy
From behind every door and I wouldn’t ask why

If sailors could sail on a peppermint ship
Upon chocolate waves, what a wondrous trip
I would paint the sky pink with a magical wand
The trees would dance by the lemonade pond

If bruises and bumps made me laugh not cry
I’d stand on a mountain to take off and fly
My back would sprout wings and my toes would flutter
I’d land on a sea of sweet apple butter

If fiddles were feathers, I play a soft song
My days would be sweet and ever so long
I’d sleep in the shade of the hum of my mother
And dream candy dreams, one after another

It doesn't make one bit of sense, but it's a wonderful, wishful bit of whimsy.

What a wonderful, whimsical play with words. Very creative and humorous. I found myself chuckling as I read all of the sweet revelations this honey of a write displays.

This was a wonderful trip down the candy land trail,and I got to be honest I don't think its just for kids, it is for anyone that remembers his or her childhood and as Mr. Bolton said quite a great rhyming trip...Enjoyed this a great deal, and thank you for the smile...-e-
