The Magic Box
I will put in my box Four lovely summers A mouth watering chocolate land Another world which is amazing I will put in my box A second sun which doesn't give out light An ocean which has five wishes for every person Water that dances when someone goes in it I will put in my box The sweet sound of the swooshing sea A snowman that can survive in Summer Someplace where the rain never falls I will put in my box A place where the rain always stays A non polluted world A never ending rain forest My box is fashioned from gold and has a secret under the lid and under the inside floor I shall surf in my box On the lovely ocean and see it dance in front of me and catch some fish for dinner.
I found this poem in the attic while sorting out.
It was written by my son when he was 9 years old.
Ute smile 
I’d like to order 5 of those boxes. Please!
Keep sorting! What a wonderful find!
Oh, yes I like those boxes too :-). …And yes I will keep sorting, who knows what else I find! It is such fun!
That is incredible! He has a talent!
Thank you, he was doing really well in school. I’ll let him know! ♥
This is such a lovely poem, Ute.
We all need our magic boxes, once in a while.
Thank you to you and your son for sharing this one. 💗
And now I know where the idea for Olaf’s personal flurry came from!
I liked it very much too and finding it again brought back memories. We do need som magic yes, so we need to ook out for it daily! ♥ Love that Olaf video. ♥
That’s a purrfect box, can you put me in there too. I can help with the fishies😸Pawkisses for a Happy Mother’s Day dear furriend. We’re sure she’s watching you✨🐾😽💞
I believe my mum is watching, and we played today her favourite card game. She would have loved to join. Please do join the box, interesting things in it! 🙂
How wonderful – and what a lovely find. He is such a talent – just like his mum! 😘
Aww, thank you, well we have all different talents. He did well and I am rather proud of him.
What a beautiful poem !
Thank you very much! ♥
This is so full of life. I want create my own box now.
Great idea, I wonder what will be in your box! This one was filled about 18 years ago.
Hmmmm, I have actual boxes, I will have to check (but they are all packed from moving!). But my boxes weren’t created with this intent!
🙂 Why not creat your virtual box…..
Maybe my blog can be my virtual box? 🙂
I think it is and as that it is a wonderful box wiht so many treasures in it!
You are one of those treasures Ute 🙂
Aw thank you, I am very honoured and happy to be in your box! ♥
Wunderschön und wirklich erstaunlich, dass das ein 9jähriger Junge geschrieben hat.
Fand ich auch, doch er hatte gute Lehrer. Was man alles so auf der Buehne findet… 🙂
Hi Ute,
What a precious find! Beautiful and creative!
Blessings! ♥♥
Thank you it certainly is !
I love what he wrote. That was really good
Yes I love it, he always had good imagination too.
We love the charm of the naivety of this poem. Your son has a feeling for language, dear Ute.
Wishing you a wonderful rest of this week
