Once upon a time there was a boy and a girl
whose imaginations were stronger
than they could control.
Thank goodness we have each other, they both
thought but could never say aloud.
They had strange habits like making it snow
if they were too hot, or falling into the sky
if they did not hold on, or becoming animals
if they got too close to the woods.
At meal times, plates moved across the tablecloth
like tall ships and food flew like cannonballs.
One day the boy held the girl's hand
and told her how he felt, but was unable
to convince her that it wasn't simply a dream.

I really like the visual aspect of this - it'll make a good pyro-thingy :)
