{like most of my thoughts incomplete ....}

Part II ???

upon the forest floor i lay
i laid my head to sleep
the leaves that beckoned me to stay
kept me warm for sleep

the sun brought back reality
it woke me from my dreams
that magic dust had brought to me
those travels in my dreams

i wandered back into my life
past all the things i knew
the plainness cut like a knife
yet i was all i knew

when in town, i walked the streets
into the coffee shops
hoping for a friend to meet
i'd walk along and shop

on the corner sat the church
in the steeple was a bell
there i saw a pigeon perch
in the steeple rang the bell

into the bakery i did roam
the smell it bid me in
inside egg whites frothed in foam
the devils food was sin

all day long i thought and thought
about that magic dust
the dreams that it had brought
had caused for me to lust

i wanted to be back at sea
to sail upon my ship
i heard the stars call to me
oh to take that trip
