Walking On Sunshine

Call me little miss Dorothy from the wizard of Oz fame, for today I’m Clicking my ruby red shoes, on the golden bricks on the sunshine path, Ain’t no wicked old witch going to slow me down, for I’m bound to rock in The emerald party town beyond realities safety zone! Melting liquid light shine rays cascading from Nirvana on the heights Shimmering divides, mystic to the magical power of the human imagination, I’ll glide on the inspirational tides beyond the veils of the timeless tides, To dwell within epic world known as the land of Oz. Come one, come all those with the wild hearted spirit, lets ride upon Those twisting breezing of destiny’s storming tornado winds, never to be Tamed or bridled, desperado’s denim jeans cowgirls screaming with liberations Ultimate hillbilly yell, yee-haw, to hell with social acceptance, why not just Have a ball instead, and set your poetic soul to drift upon the dream in this Magical realm of inspiration! Whom has not ever wanted to jump into that hot air balloon of wondrous Fame, to float amongst the rainbow light of an undiscovered world beneath Their feet, oh to experience the sights and sounds of fantasy’s unchained melodies Of the human imagination gone free falling into enchantment’s mystical flights Of spiritual indulgence, count me in on this adventure for I’m a passenger, With a passport ready to be stamped, as a lost castaway forever! Oh don’t cry Mr. Tines woodmen for my heart belongs to your creaking Soul eternal, with roses red I’ll oil thee with sweet words of softest poetry, Until your mine I’ll whisper ever so gently into your ears, of loves passionate Lyrics spoken beneath the oldest oak in Oz. Have no fear my fearless lion, for I’ll protect thee from that wicked old Witch with a river of liquefaction's pail filled to the brim, I’ll be your slayer Of evil dragons, crones and nasty elder ladies with delusions of world Domination, for I’m just that much of a kitty cat lover, my purring friend, With a coward complex! Scare Crow what a mindful fellow are you, not to realize how smart Thou’est are, to help others without reservations restraints, to have The courage to stand against all the odds, no matter your own personal Satisfice I’m humbled before your intelligence and compassion! Yes, I’m just a Kanas City Gal at heart, lost beyond the rainbows end Of fantasy’s kingdom beyond, call me Dorothy of Oz a resident Of the black and white silver screen, colorized with brilliance blazing Inspirations undertones, is there no place like home for me, don’t you Already have the answer my friend, it’s called the mystical land Known as Oz, and here is where my childhood heart forever belongs, Walking on the golden path of sunshine’s road!

this one is chock full of references to Dorothy and Oz. A very charming prose. It was great to hear that you are out and about, but TAKE it EASY, ok? You can write, however, to your heart's delight!!
