Where is It?

Wanton whimsy ~ 

    Where can I find it? 

It’s not in the work place

I can’t buy it in the store

In church I have to be quiet

Libraries are hushed and silent.

Wanton whimsy ~ 

    Will I move forward?

Swinging high and low, back and forth, 

I know the feeling of movement

Walking from here to there, strolling or striding

I can hear myself think of things that could be

Wanton whimsy ~ 

    It can be found!

In the playground no matter my age.

On a sidewalk, a path or high in the trees

In the face of a flower or song of the birds

Riding a bike, face to the wind and sun.

Wanton whimsy ~ 

    Will it help me move forward?

A short answer is: Yes

When I see the colours outside of my mind and

listen to my real wishes and dreams

I know how to step forward in my life.

“Whimsy doesn’t care if you are the driver or the passenger; 

all that matters is that you are on your way.”
