30 Days of Writing: Magic carpet (9/30)

June 9, 2012

This post is written in conjunction with the 30 Days of Writing, a blog challenge devised by Nicky and Mike at “We Work For Cheese.” I’ll be participating throughout the month of June. If interested, you can see my post with the details of the challenge. 

Please note that some of these posts will be serious, some will be normal, and some will be an attempt at humor. This one has me being stumped! 

Magic carpet?

Seriously?

Is this where I am supposed to blame it on Mike (of We Work For Cheese) to get some extra points?

No matter what — magic carpet?

What are we, like 10-years-old?

Sheeeesh.

So when I think of magic and think of the age of 10, I think of one thing — though it’s not a carpet.

It’s a dragon.

Now, I know people say the song is about weed and such. Peter, Paul and Mary highly deny this. And, let’s be truthful, this song is part of a lot of people’s childhood and will likely transcend time and continue to be a major part of people’s growing time for years and years to come.

I can hear you now — this isn’t a magic carpet. I know, I know… give me a moment.

So carpet.

I think a bad hairpiece. Seriously.

Some dude with a checkered suit jacket and talking about the weather on some bad TV station and a bad toupee.

Like you weren’t thinking the same thing.

OK, OK… I get it. It’s about a magic carpet ride.

Would you just prefer some Steppenwolf? I’m sure I won’t be posting this song today, but so be it. I’m stumped on this theme.

However, if Nicky and Mike could send a magic carpet down this way loaded with some dishes of poutine, I’d be thankful!

    Oh, I love Puff the Magic Dragon. It takes me back. So maybe the song is like a magic carpet ride back to the past.

      I think it’s an excellent song, too. It just seems to have the chance to have some “other” meanings!

      I think it makes a lot of people think that way. Though Peter, Paul and Mary claim it has nothing to do with it!
