In Her Dreams - 100 Word Drabble

She rides a painted pony

Over rolling grassland hills.

She walks a shaded woodland path,

And listens to the wind whispering.

Sometimes she stops to breathe the scent

Of a fragrant upland meadow,

Or drinks to quench her thirst

From a rushing mountain stream.

She uses the images in her young mind

To take her far away

From the filthy city her parents have taken her

While fleeing the ravages of war.

She travels from there often,

In the quiet of her mind,

And gives her youthful spirit a chance

To grow into something beautiful,

Just like in her dreams.
