Magical space
buried deep under layers of
growing up and becoming an adult
Elves and fairies
pixie dust and flying
golden glitter turning shades of blue, purple or green
Land of make believe
land of nod
hidden but not gone
Imaginary friends
placed on a shelf
wrapped in memories
set aside
not cast away
Dragons and unicorns
precious moments
bound by social rules
had to be tucked away
Bizarre, peculiar, outlandish, outré
buried
to make room for reality
But magic seeps up
in unusual ways
beautiful melodies
twinkle of an eye
curious observations
outrageous hair
Weird, zany, unconventional, strange
magic may be buried
but it is still there
