Mickey Mouse


Some people call it a madhouse
They say, “How can anyone enjoy this place?”
Everything is so expensive
The lines are so long, it is too hot
to be standing in lines for hours.
This place is not a vacation.
I don’t understand why some people
go crazy about this place called..
Disney World.

This place wasn’t a madhouse to me.
It was the exact opposite.
The lines were sometimes long,
but that’s where you planned out your day.
Decisions for the next ride, dinner plans, and
the game plan for the night were all made
standing in line, anticipating the loops and corkscrews of the coaster.

You can’t change the weather, so you
learn to adjust. You bring the
tiny misty fan that it just enough to
keep you cool.
You wear clothes with the lightest hue
of grey. If you wear any black, then it is
your own fault.

Disney World was paradise to me.
I couldn’t wait to get every picture
with each princess, no matter how long the lines were,
I needed to meet every single one.

The rides were worth the wait.
The thrill at the top of the coaster
made me feel like I was on top of the world.
This place would always be my favorite vacation spot.

  1. I like how even though I never been to Disney World I can get the feeling of how it would if I did go. Just watch out for the cliché lines that refer to the roller coaster. I also had an issue with that.

  2. The imagery is really good. The comparison between how you feel about Disney world compared to how other feel. I like the repetition of "madhouse" and how you describe why or why not it's that way.
