Dreamt Away Sadness Poem by Ima Ryma

A sad young girl did fall asleep,
And dreamt that she was on a lake
Of peaceful waters blue and deep.
A giant lily pad did make
A place for her to sit upon.
Brilliant colors did fill the sky,
Announcing break of a new dawn.
And to her flew a butterfly,
The prettiest and biggest she'd
Ever seen and she grabbed its tail,
Taking a wondrous trip indeed.
All around the lake she did sail.

When she woke from the dream she had,
The young girl was no longer sad.
