Daring Dashing Dazzling Disney World

(Walt Disney Poster welcoming all Visitors)
I still remember my visit to the
It was in cold windy frigid December
Dr Kyaw Win from
(Snow Covered Boston)
Down the east coast of
To savor the sights and sounds of Walt
Where Dr Myint Han could join us later
Then, all three of us could enjoy the wonders.
(Snow Covered Michigan State University, East Lansing, Michigan)
But, I was busy sitting for various examinations
Writing term papers and proposals for education
So, I could not join him on his drive southwards
He was agile and active like a leopard;
He met and mingled with his class mates
Like Drs Brajwaja and Naidoo in
He informed me of what he saw and made
He shared his experiences with me up o date.
(Orlando Airport, Florida- Sunny and Scenic)
When I had finished submitting every thing
Dr Kyaw Win and Dr Myint Han were waiting
For me to travel to Walt Disney World in
So, I boarded a plane from
(Orlando Airport Lounge)
To
I saw them seeing me at Orlando Airport gesticulating
That I was wearing heavy suits fit for winter hibernation
They were in light dresses suitable for summer awing.
(Orlando Airport Scene)
We put up in a nearby hotel
It’s very convenient and congenial
We booked it by phone from far away
Yet, they made us comfortable to stay
Food was available at nearby shops
We could eat any time by 5 minutes walk
The whole world is now enjoying all their claims!
( Walt Disney World Welcome You)
Next day we went to Walt
It was full of wacky wily waking wonders
I first thought it was just for kids and children
But, there are plenty of items for grownup men
(Sky Carts and Monorail for Adults, Walt Disney World, Orlando)
We found both adult men and women
All enjoying the
I mean the place of legends
That was made true by human hand.
(Cinderella Crowned as Princess by Prince Charming)
We saw all the children stories in real sense
Castles, kings, princes and princesses present
They are playing their parts as in real life
Kings command, hero prince and villains fight
Winner prince is rewarded by the princess kiss
The king marries them to live long in bliss
All the performers play according to scripts
I marveled at the recreations and stories that fit.
(Peter Pan Flying in Disney World, Orlando Parade)
There is Peter Pan flying to save the children
There is Mary Poppins doing the same for them
I saw statue of Peter Pan in Hyde Park London
I watched Mary Poppins as a movie in
I remember Julie Andrews playing grand for Mary
(Mary Poppins, Darling of Children as well as of Adults)
She was superb in playing that part as a lady
I have a child in my heart lying dormant in adult life
It comes up to the open when opportunity arises.
(Snow White and Seven Dwarfs- Story, Movie and Reality)
We also saw reconstructs of other children stories
There is Snow White and Seven Dwarfs in reality
It’s not strange for us as we know the story
But, for children it’s a wonderful opportunity
(Snow White in the Parade)
(Seven Dwarfs Following Snow White in the Parade)
To see in persons the characters they’re familiar
It’s like Santa Clause seen everywhere in December
Yes, children know they are fables and fictional characters
Nonetheless they enjoy it perfectly well as real entertainers.
(Visitors Going to Tom Sawyer's Island)
We also watched the reconstructs of Tom Sawyer
We‘re amused by his adventures and ardor
We appreciate his wits, wiles and courage
He’s not only a hero of the
But also hero of all the world’s children
He stays in the heart of all literate men;
(Pirates of the Caribbean Scare-Crow)
Huckleberry Fin is his courageous cousin
Mark Twain was a genius for these creations.
(Walt Disney World Parade Headed by Mickey Mouse)
There are other stories set as though really happened
Aladdin, Cinderella,
They remain as real like
But, we should not forget these two characters
Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck of all creatures
(Mimi and Micky Mouse)
They were the Walt Disney caricatures
We saw them in flesh and blood every where
They’re walking, wobbling, squeaking, speaking, hear!
(Statue of Walt Disney with Micky Mouse, a Genius of Man)
Apart from gazing at great inventions
We also enjoyed real things;
We rode the monorail like children
We sat in the roller coaster like them
We sailed in the boat to roam
We’re shot from all sides with spears
We shied, shouted and enjoyed the rides
We felt we spent our time and money right.
(Castle in the Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World, Orlando)
We also watched the greatness of
In the “
We felt in the midst of cattle gazing and galloping
We saw cattle in front, on the sides and at back following
(Grand Canyon, Arizona, USA)
It was due to movies shot from eight angles simultaneously
So when seen, you’re in the center of 8 sides continuously
You feel like you are in the center of events happening
We enjoyed
(Niagara Falls Between USA and Canada)
We ate Kentucky Fried Chicken
It was crispy, twiggy, tasty and tan
We heard about inventor Colonel Saunders
After he had served in
(Ubiquitous Kentucky Fried Chicken)
With American Army tasting local foods
He made a note of preparing various produce
He sold this formula for one million dollars
He also earns a percent of the sale as inventor.
(KFC Fried Chicken and Potato Chips)
When we came back from
We felt like we had been to a real world
Stories came to light and fantasies materialized
We became children for a day so mesmerized
That made us younger more than a year in real life
We enjoyed the sounds, sights and fantasies all right
We wished we could show this to our friends and families
We must share our experience when back in our country.
(Walt Disney awarded Medal Of Freedom by President Lyndon Johnson)
Walt Disney was a great genius in creation
I marvel at his intelligence and imagination
We should honor him for his inventions
President Johnson had already awarded him
The Medal of Freedom for his contributions
We're now enjoying the fruits of his creation
May Walt Disney World prosper for ever in entertaining!
