BETWEEN WHAT IS AND WHAT IS NOT



 The universe exists all around us but do aliens really 
  Exist,

  We can see the sun resting in the sky, no pot of gold 
  Over a rainbow.

  Mountains formed, standing above so tall, not a bigfoot 
  Between the trees,

  The moon is for us a reality,  no face or a man lives up 
  There alone.

  Ireland and green grass are for real, across the sea they 
  Do appear,

  Leprechauns I have never seen, four leaf clovers bring luck 
  In a dream.

  Castles of old stand on many lands, stories of them, for 
  C,enturies are told,

  Magical spells and fire breathing dragons, were they ever 
  Seen or felt?

  Between what is and what is not are fables and tall tales 
  Handed down,

  Fantasies and all that is real live in our minds or before 
  Us We see.
