To play, to play
To throw my life away
Upon the shore and let the sea
Transform my very destiny
In pounding wave and dancing ocean spray!
To fly, to fly
To soar until I die
Of laughter's healing rhapsody
Immune to Newton's gravity
I'll paint my wildest dreams across the sky!
To pay, to pay
My kingdom for a day
To ransom from reality
Our hearts of creativity
And set our minds on Eden, come what may!
To sigh, to sigh
To whisper by-and-by
Of foolishness and fantasy
Reborn to wondrous mystery
We'll shape the world together, you and I!

I find this rather good for a rhyming poem. It's hard to come by good rhyming poems. However, the exclamation marks at the end of each stanza are rather jarring, and break the flow of the poem.

Thanks. I have to admit that I have the same general reaction to rhyming poetry, and I usually avoid it. But I rather enjoyed writing this one. Thanks for reading!
