A Day Like Today

On a day like today-

I would take over the world. On second thought, I really don't want much of the world. I have no need, nor desire for it's multiple issues that seem to reproduce like Ferrel cats. The thousands of years worth of baggage and complications pose a significant deterrent to me. But on a day like today I believe that I could conquer this damaged place- if I so chose. I would just take over the most desirable parts- Of course I would be queen...but the figure head kind. The one that gets her way all the time and is adorned with robes crafted by the most skilled hands and wears timeless jewels so naturally they would be as my own skin. I would have no real responsibility- other than to make people feel better about their lives, smile-wave and kiss babies.

On a day like today...

I would dive into a blue topaz ocean curled comfortably beside the pearlized sand-asparkle with iridescent vastness. There would be just the right amount of frothy waves -so I would take up surfing in a matter of moments-dancing over the surface of the water- exhilarated with the perfect blend of ecstasy and adrenaline...Without so much as a fear of sharks. The sharks would leave me be -because I would be embodying THAT much ferocity. Even though I am teasing them with my tastiness, sharks don't engage in battles that don't promise certain victory.

When I get tired I would bathe myself in nothing but sun- the kind that emblazoned the Incan empire like a celestial kingdom. Its' majestic rays would dry every inch of my flesh with its' delightfully fiery kiss . I would bask there on the deck of a white yacht that doesn't belong to me until the precise moment when my skin was sufficiently bronzed...and the scent of coconut was oozing from my every pore. I would then dip back through the cool diamond clear surface of the water and channeling my inner mermaid, would rendezvous with the myriad members of ocean life I would encounter there. In and out of currents we would glide, stopping briefly to explore pirate ships buried miles below the surface and mingling around the edges of uninhabited islands.

I would then swim effortlessly back to the unblemished beach. Dress in my island cotton sundress and winged sandals borrowed from Hermes (Messenger of the gods)and take flght.

On a day like today...

I would spend years living in all the most fascinating locations-but consuming just hours of reality time...Exotic beaches, tranquil castles, untamed jungles, exuberant cities...I would meet brilliant people with colorful lives and gulp every drop of what they held to my thirsty lips. I would fill on the tempting taste of their endeavors, escapes, achievements, conquests, passions, journeys, wars, escapades, treasures, mysteries...philosophies and religions...I would wander home drunk from my experience-utterly satisfied.

On a day like today

I would shimmer with the alabaster cold ones and we would light the day with our incandescent glory. Together like crimson tainted angels we would race with packs of wild wolves in the velvety blanket of night and howl with abandon at whatever aroused our instincts. -And we would scuffle and soar, waltz and hunt. I would be utterly invincible.(Thanks to Miss Meyer for my vampire obsession)...

Weary from this display of power-

On a day like today I would summon my personal unicorn who on powerful silver-white crinoline wings would sink me into my very own plump, supple cloud glistening with sticky sugar drops and lulling me with the sweet smell of vanilla and I would be ferried through a sea of stars on fairy guided wing into my bed and dream...

about another day like today.
