The Secret Life of Walter Mitty


Once there was a man

He never questioned what else was out there

That man stayed put and never ran

What else does he need to do he has everything right here

Or so he thought

For a strange occurance happened and it seemed he would have to go

So he went out with no afterthought

He left what he once knew 

And left the flow

The man learned more than he expected but there was one thing he wanted

A girl to hold

With all his new found knowledge he returned like he was hunted

He changed his old life and met the girl he wanted to behold

What he did not know was a little girl was watching him

And her future would be changed by this man in this movie

Just like the film

She would want to become a journalist and travel to achieve all around

It was such a simple movie, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

But it moved such a simple girl

That is all it really takes

Something simple to make a big dream.
