Peaceful

The fish fly
The lighthouse shines
We are pacified
Peaceful as children looking at the moon
It is all so magical she says
You have to look up to see
The world turns whether you want it to or not
Shall we take tea?
That sounds good
Rich, sweet and filling
We have cakes and sweet meats
No Hatter or dormouse
The Red Queen did not speak today
It hurt us
We like when she waves and smiles
She said she watches me
Even if she does not speak
I search her out
Look for her distinctive hair
Her lithe body
She has an accent
We notice that
We have not spoken today
Unsure if we like the silence or not
The lighthouse hums
The flying fish flap
Life has its signs and rhythms
Long may we wonder its course.
