The Land of Make Believe

Like Mr. Rogers, can we pretend just for a day, that we live in a world where brain tumors don't exist? Can we go to the neighborhood of make believe where everything will be alright and our troubles will fade? Can we run and swing on the trees like Peter Pan and the lost boys in Never Never Land? Oh what fun it would be to hop, skip, and play ever so carefree. Or to be like Wendy, Michael, and John flying through the sky like a bird.

But alas it was time to go home and Tinkerbell's magic dust only held so much power. Even in Neverland creeps the darkness of Captain Hook and his crew. Still it would be nice to escape to Neverland or the Land of Make Believe. Some days I want to go to that place where time stands still and just pretend for a little while.
