And she closes her eyes, reaches out her arms and begins to spin, gently turning round and round.
Her world begins to play out in her mind like a movie, she is a child and she smiles and spins a bit faster, she becomes a girl and she throws back her head and laughs as she spins even faster.
And suddenly she becomes a young woman and she begins to slow down, slowly, slowly until she finds she is standing arms at her sides and she opens her eyes, smiles at all the adults looking at her and walks forward as a Lady should.
She has children and gently watches them grow, content to walk slowly and loves being the adult.
One day she finds she is a woman, her children are young adults, and she is walking gently alone, not unhappy just alone.
He looks at this woman, holds out his hand and his eyes ask her to trust him, she, almost without thinking places her hand in his.
She closes her eyes once more and he begins to walk around her, she finds herself spinning ever so slowly and she smiles, he fills her soul with magic and she spins faster, once more throwing back her head and laughing, but this time she opens her eyes and his face is there smiling right back into her.
She found her 'Neverland' his name is Michael:-)

my poet family
takes Michaels hand and curls up
I'm on the way, tonight you sleep in the heart of the clouds. I will take you there soon. I think I could do with a nice quiet night myself. Know matter how your life might go, always believe in the magic, take my hand, and things will be well. Our magic is Love.
Catch you in a bit
You are the queen of my dreams.
Your Michael eternal.
She found her 'Neverland', with its smiles and laughter, is a fitting ending for this evolving narrative write. Thanks for sharing the magic.
I never had my own children, but reading your poem
reminds me of my nieces and nephews.
I watched them all growing-up. Shine description!
If you ask, I shall clutch from the sky, the unreachable star. The stars are ours.
You are my exquisite butterfly.
Your Michael eternal.
come lets go to bed my love
