At times it would be nice

to have a pair of magic red shoes.

Just clicking them together three times

would do the trick.

 

Suddenly I would be transported

to wherever my mind of memory

would wish to go.

 

At this very moment

I could easily think of a dozen places

I would love to be at this moment.

 

Each time frame

would place me at a time and place

where I felt greatly loved.

 

Where there was a skip in my step

and a constant grin on my face.

I can easily bring to mind

scenes of such places in my past.

 

Skipping through a mall with her

like a school child.

Dancing with her

for the first time

with my arm around her waist. 

 

Ah yes then their were those

first kisses

always soft

always remembered

always joyful

in the way those kisses went to my toes.

 

Truthly knowing what I know now

would I have taken more time

to savor every moment.

 

Time in remembering every detail

of the places of my youth

where my magic red shoes

would have taken my heart.
