Down, down, down the hill

“Sometimes up is down, often times though, down is up, especially when falling off a really fast going sleigh. Alas, getting up and back on the track, the fun to be had when going fast down the hill.” Gun Roswell

When ever there is snow on the ground
And a small mountain or a molehill found
The kids will arrive in flocks
Dragging their sleighs to the top

“Mommy, mommy, look at me!
Look how fast I am going!
Oops, look, there’s a tree!”

<Crash, bang, boing>

“Mommy, mommy, look no teeth!”

The kid only laughingly stated
As back up hill he ventured
If only to once more ride
Before getting his dentures

Up, then down

Up or down, it’s still a frown” Gun Roswell

Up, then down

Looking up at a burger joint sign in the ever darkening skies
Then suddenly, sliding down the golden escalator, at the exact time
Is this a time warp, a wormhole or an other dimension
Or plain old mind trick, playing a game with my imagination?

It may be a dream on a Friday afternoon nap
Or simply a total concoction inside a writer head gone mad
We may never find out the real truth behind this tale
But does it really matter as the story for each reader will never mean the same?
