That Other Place

Beyond the ever reaching sky
Across the golden sea
Lies a land of magic and mystery
Where unicorns roam
And iridescent dragons rule the skies

To most it is mere fantasy,
Something only imagined
But I have journeyed there
In my dreams
They play a lilting tune
The song takes me away

I tried to reach that other place
In the waking world
I thought I heard sweet music
Away in the distance
And a presence behind me
I turned around

And lo, there was nothing there
But far away they sang without a care
I heard the elves, they sang a song
A song like tiny silver bells
