Life is beautiful if we open out eyes and accept:

Castles that float in the air

Way up in the light

On the wing as life should be

No underground hideaway

Just free on the winds of time

Popping the silver balloons of dreams

Making them a reality

Cradled within the heart

Pearly teardrops that never fall

Held tightly by contentment’s arms

There being no need for them in the castles

Take this offered hand and fly

Welcome the light

Opening the heart to dreams

    Good poem. But we all need our underground hideaways from time to time. At least I do.

    So true. If we open up our eyes there are many beautiful things around us that we can appreciate.
