The Magical window

Methmi Mandara 2007 (Matara)



Lying on my bed staring through the window
I saw a star shooting from a sky hollow
After a while, fallen a asleep but no any sight
Just then the window opened with a deep light

The gleam was soon on to my eyelid
And then it knew, I was a wee kid
Through the window it was shinning giving me a hope
I wasn't sure, Was I already dope?

Touched the sparkling smoke through the window
No any fork, I was swinging a rainbow
Above the clouds as soft and cuddly as cotton
Through the stars twinkling cute as button

Saw a silhouette coming fast this way
Who are you? I could not say
It was a Pegasus with aureate wings
She told she will glide me as a string

Went to the cloud castle, it was wonderful
I felt from the creations, the kings were powerful
They created clouds, light, rainbow and rains
I came through the magical window, I said from my veins.
