THE DREAM

The girl was dressed in pink and white
She was glowing bright in the daylight
Happy was she when she got into the car
To drive with her parents to some place far.

She moved swiftly in her lace-like gown
As if she was the princess with a crown!
She sat in the backseat behind her parents,
little did she know how life laments!

They went to the fair to sing and dance
They enjoyed as if they were in a trance.
She jumped and laughed under the clear sky
She knew that it is gonna be her best day.

With candies and toys, they returned back
They were happy even when it was dark
The roads were desolate and immensely misty
Even then, they were strikingly glad and feisty.

Then something happened; very unexpected
And suddenly, the whole trip became ill-fated.
The car was gruesomely hit by a speeding truck
The horrendous event even scared the hawk!

Suddenly, she woke up sweating in intense agony
The scene played in her mind like a cacophony.
She ran into her mother's arms and held her tight
The decision to not go to the fair was so right.
