Three Word Wednesday CCVII

Written for and posted to 3WW
The words this week are:
Gait, Nudge, and ripen.

Here's mine:

DREAM
I know you saw the missiles coming
but did you see the castles in the sky?
As they gait like horses at full gallop
speeding through the thinning clouds.
If you could dream, you could give my
green tomatoes a nudge to ripen.

  7. This so all over the place it fit me beautifully...thank you.

    Thank you for stopping by. I hope the poem (For the love of Pete!) made you smile. Every time we ask a child "why?" they will say "I don't know." but if you ask "what did you do first" you will get the full story!
