All is well that ends well
By Yancy and Diana Dalton, United States
No T.V. to break the
sound
Lost in books we've found
Painting realms in our mind
Reality & magic entwined
Living the tale, we tell
In faith, it will end well
Yet, dragons under our bed
Move inside our head
Our story projects our lives
As our fairytale thrives
Dragons, daemons & heroes
So, a mythical fear arose
Projected on life's screen
Plot appears to be mean
We become so engaged
We are blindly enraged
"Hey! You, way up there
You're supposed to care"
Yelling & screaming, Oh God!
Then things start feeling odd
Gentleness infuses our mind
Warm, enticing & kind
"You can't see the Master's plan
Fear is blindness of man
Script is written, story won
You too are my beloved one
Follow the plan with me
I'll show the way to victory
Endless is my being in you
Express our essence true
Come within for the allowing of
Never ending, peace, joy & love"
what a lovely collab! Love it!

Well, I love the line "Dragons under our bed" - to me shows the fears we, as humans, endure. But there is a lovely sparkle throughout the poem projecting a positive, bright outlook. Well done.
