The Land of Happiness

I dreamt I was sailing on a boat toward my former self

I passed mermaids and dolphins splashing on the way

beautiful coral underneath my feet

as I walked on water


I dreamt I had a beautiful baby boy

as beautiful as you, my boy

and I held him close like the man in the moon

holds the stars


I dreamt I played in the sand

with a fortune inside of a sand castle

dreams washed away with laughter

as I let my toes sink into the wet sand


I dreamt I sailed away then

on a boat with big white sails

it took me across the ocean

to a distant land
