Ship Of Dreams
It’s almost time for the maiden voyage of the Ship Of Dreams
where anything can happen and things are never what they seem.
Have you bought your ticket, have you booked your seat --
for if you have, tonight might bring to you a dream so sweet.
So step aboard and settle down, the sails have been unfurled,
you’re about to venture deep into what is a different world.
This ship, now she is sailing but not in sea – Ill tell you why;
the Ship Of Dreams catches the wind and sails up in the sky.
Way up there above the clouds you’ll find the world of dreams
with lots of floating bubbles holding lots of different schemes
and plots – a dream for every taste, for each passengers delight.
No one will be left dream free if they are on this flight.
Just a word of warning – not all these dreams are sweet and nice,
some will leave you very scared, your blood’s been turned to ice.
It is totally fantastical for here anything can exist,
many things are so bizarre they’ll give your mind a twist.
But once on board you have to stay and see the dream right through;
if you’re not liking the experience there’s nothing you can do.
When those dreams are pleasant though, you’ll not want them to end
instead you might decide to stay and live in ‘Let’s Pretend.’
Now all aboard and take your seats, be prepared for some weird sights,
I will always be the Captain when the Ship of Dreams takes flight!

I think a lot of us could do with a trip on this ship. The good thing about it is it's only a dream away!
Thanks for the read and comment, Tom.
Seats on board are dirt cheap, in fact, all you have to do is open your mind, and they're free!

Absolutely! This is for those with imagination rather than money! Thanks, Mike.

This was fantastic, I loved thinking of the Ship of Dreams and all the fantastic places it could go. It is definitely a ship I want to be on, and it doesn't even have to be that hard to get to. Great poem.
