Juxtaposed Reality and Virtuality
The stars were under my
pillow,
The moon was playing peek-
a- boo,
The wishes were flying in
the room,
The aura was peaceful and
like those in fairy tales…
The air was colorful,
water was pink,
Like a Barbie she sat and
narrated the story of Snow White
And the snow was all
around…
Like a Rapunzel, she plaited
here hair, and narrated the wonders of Alice’s world,
And we had, dodo, turtle,
duck, rabbit, dormouse and every crawly creature there,
The place was full and
stars were dimming down,
When the little red riding hood
came running, out from the shackles of the wolf.. The room was like all humane…when
there was treachery, fear, and disgust.
Then the three little
pigs cheered up the room, the nightingale sang for us all, the magical carpet
was dancing on the melodious tunes..
It was a delight to feel the
world, away from this world!!
Not a fantasy, not a
belief,
Only an imagination of what
when Cindrella took away her magic stick and we were back in the world of Jane
Austin, Fra Pandolf, Tennyson, William
Blake and yes, John Keats!!
Love
