Wondering

There was a girl
Who lived long ago
And she was happy
At least she thought so.

She had a family who loved her
Friends who cared
But she always wondered
What more was out there.

Were there dragons and mermaids?
Were there damsels and knights?
Were there mountains that reached
Incredible heights?

And she always wondered
Where she really belonged.
She dreamt of a place
She heard in a song.

A place full of peril
And wonders galore,
A place where she was herself
Who could ever ask for more?

So she searched and she looked
But never could find
That wondrous place she
Saw in her mind

So she lived her life
As happy as she could be
But the tiniest part of her
Wondered what would be

If she had found her song,
Her wish come true.
If she had finally done
What she had set out to do.
