Wild Willow Area by Ivy Jones


Wild Willow Area

Brown lines the ground on each side,
There is a pathway that leads to great pride.
Like Dorothy and Toto being whisked away to The Wonderful World of Oz.
Where is the line between fiction and the clause?
Black and white to color?
Or Toto without a collar.

Maple trees hang above the munchkins homes.
They all look rather similar to gnomes.
Show the clarity of the adventure.
Even if in the end it leads to a thirst quencher.
Each branch leads to a new direction,
From left to right, up and down, there is detection.
That will lead to Oz the Great and Powerful.

The tin recycling box of green
Brings the tin alive for me.
A man of tin searching for a heart
With no direction or place to start.

These great big branches reach for the sky
And come together with a blink of an eye.
Scarecrow man of straw is created.
This man and the last might just be interrelated.
A straw man with no brain
Now that is a shame.

Last but not least is the patch of grass
That reminds me of sass
From a lion with no courage.
As his adventure continues, his friends are great and encourage.

In the end everyone gets what they want
Except the aunt
Of Dorothy names Auntie Em, who misses
Her niece with all her heart and sends her kisses.

In between the brown on the ground
There is a star shape of red wound.
In the Land of Oz there is a pair of shoes
That will take Dorothy home for her blues.

At the end she awakes from her dream
And explains it as it all seemed.
