Play me!
Round and round the carousel goes….
The Carousel in Saint George, Utah
Carousel Mall! Seaside , Oregon!
Liltingly, the music seems to float in the air above the carousel.
Colorful bright lights dazzle the eyes!
Bright lights are dazzling!
Blurring fun!
Animals offer a seat to ride!
Steeds proudly prance!
A smiling Giraffe!
A cat with a fish in its mouth, smugly awaits!
Even seahorses, rabbits, ostriches and cupids on sleighs offer a place to ride…
Seahorse!
Hoppy Rabbit!
Ostrich by the Giraffe….
Cupid on a sleigh….
Excited and squealing with delight, children clamber aboard the carousel to ride….
Slowly, the ride begins with its music gaily picking up tempo….
Color and light combine into blurs as the ride picks up speed!
Olde Tyme Fun!
It's All Relative.... 
A childhood dream painted in words.Wonderful 🙂

Thank you! I’m not poetic by any stretch of the imagination but that just kind of came to me. Carousels hold a fascination and childlike delight with me.

I disagree with you there. How can you say you are not poetic? I think you are . Very lines stand testimony to that. You should definitely give a try at writing more poems 🙂

Well, I do when the inspiration hits. My daughter writes poetry and her father is a published author of poetry and 4 novels. He posts little positive prose on FB all the time and I’ve even guest authored him here with his piece titled SPRING TIME (under The FOOLosopher’s Take tab).
Thanks for the vote of confidence!

I didn’t mean to mislead you. Her father is no longer my husband but he is a very good friend. It’s a long story there. He posts little poems via is FB feed but you can friend me and see them anytime he’s posting if you’d like. Send me an email and I’ll give you the information that way.

They are! Love the art work that goes into them. For extra cash, I posed for a sculptor that made them but I didn’t pose for that project. It was another for a Viking woman and he wanted to use my legs which were well muscled because I rode bicycles as transportation back then.
