Imagination:

The imagination is an endless void, A vast pool to bathe in, Conjuring up images faster than light, The imagination is a curious thing, Imagine if you will the state of bliss! But what need of imagery if we accomplished this? Nay, man needs some sorrow in his heart, Or is bliss a state of imagination gone wild? Is not all imagination? Every single reality, of every single person? I imagine a world with few people in it, All the rest are simply holograms, What captures your imagination? A crimson sky, A long kiss good bye? All is mind, and imagery fills the mind, All of the time! Well, I imagine so anyway... /|\

Very good poem, you penned here, Rick. You even went a little existential. Asking some of life's essential questions. I like this introspective person. Great subject to tackle. You did w/a graceful pen. Love you, my friend.

Thanks RW! The imagination fascinates me on so many levels, the once science-fiction soon becomes reality. If we can imagine it we can do it so to speak /|\
