My daughter is working on a book of poetry for a senior project. Many of you have heard the story so this really needs no set up. I read it for the first time this evening. Things are going well and once again I am left in awe and humbled even more.
THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH
The plane touches down
My heart beats faster now
Palm trees wave happily
But it's not the beach we are here for
The bright purple bus took
Us down the right route
To the place we were seeking
Hands point with excited shouts
The familiar happy mouse
Welcomes us to his haven
A few stressful months
Had brought us here heavy laden
The castle gleams with brilliance
The tower of terror beckons us on
Proud rock dares us to climb
And Epcot helped us to soar
Ending with a parade
And hot chocolate with Christmas music
Playing, starting to fade
There was nowhere else
I'd rather be
Holidays 2005
feel the Magic with me

Wow.
That is beautiful.
Healing balm covers your heart, doesn't it?
