Short Days and long Nights

by PineappleKing   Feb 9, 2015


We lay there in our kingdom of dreams,
talk of conquering neighboring lands and pillaging the fridge
is all that can be heard from beyond the walls of the castle.
World domination is in the air like love in the spring.
Dreams are shared like school yard secrets.
Don't worry love, you can join too, that is if,
you give us a cookie and spend the weekend

with us here, in our blanket fort.

    I really liked this piece, Zach, it is very well written. The imagery and comparisons/vernacular you chose were wonderful together and tied the last line into the piece very well. I love the personality in this one as well because it really managed to bring the piece to life in a way I was far from expecting. Thank you for capturing the spirit of our long weekend together so wonderfully, although I think you should have made a side note about the neighboring lands being the other bed and mom/the brothers :P
