“It rains hail – it rains snow
Why not stars- I don’t know
Silver stars – stardust strewn
For extra sprinkles – just tap the moon.
Someone grant me this magical sight
Of velvety black against the shimmery white
Of glitter, glamour and sparkling gems
Clinging to frayed cuffs and tattered hems.
A handsome prince comes riding by
And approaches me, as I wonder why
Then on his knee, he begs my hand
‘Together we shall rule the land!’
The celestial spotlight on me, as I twirl
What would it be like to be a princess girl
I would live in a castle swathed in regality
And be waited upon with genteel servility.
And then I’d honestly wonder as I’d sit astride
Why fanciful musings are so dismissively decried?
Wishes are fulfilled, and dreams realized
And beggars do choose and beggars do ride!”
The Clematis Remedy ever alert,  is quick to respond
Urging her to return from the make-believe beyond
“Clematis calling dreamy miss, up on cloud nine
Before the bubble bursts, may I dare opine
You must have heard of me with all that hype
I’m just what you need because I’m your type
Dreaming sure can be a fun exercise
But you got to act to get the prize!
When with a glass shoe a real prince arrives
You got to be down here to try it for size
But life isn’t over with just finding a mate
It’s not ‘the end’; you got to get that straight.
You get married and you party and celebrate
But all said and done, beyond lies fickle fate
So invest in your future with eyes wide open
Don’t just dream girl, go make it happen.
Just be in the now and focus on the present
Realize your dreams, or later you may repent!
Building castles in the air will get you nowhere
Wake up to reality and you’re halfway there!
Make the present real- the future sound
By building your castles on the ground.
Just pick up the remedy and take a few drops
And feel the difference as you come out tops!
