All the best people are...

*****************************

Down by the river in tulgey woods

A thicket of cocoons

There was a spiralling tree

A butterfly nests in the glades

Smoke twists and blinds

Mushrooms rest over his head

Teapots speckled pink and blue

Offer shelter for little wanderers

Time is not on their side

Egocentric fellow

You ask “When is soon?”

She asked “Am I mad?”

The flowers shall be red, not white

The moon grins her grin, hanging up at night

A journey starting with a rabbit

Ending in flames: red white

Swords are made of magic

And madness leads the fight!

Brambling, atypical logorrhoea that really materialise in the form of hatching worms. Or stars.

    Oh, this is a whimsical tumble down the rabbit hole! A swirl of Wonderland mischief, magic, and madness—just the way it should be. Absolutely mad in the best way!
