"The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination." - Albert Einstein 

Imagination is a special thing.
While you are sitting still, the mind takes flight.
Perhaps you are attached to a kite string
see-sawing in the sky as you gain height,
touching clouds or riding on a rainbow.
Maybe into outer space you travel.
Seeing unknown wonders and earth below,
what mysteries your brain can unravel.
Magic carpets and rockets you don’t need.
With imagination, your soul is freed.

Beautiful poem, Dear Andrea, as all your poems are! This is very special because it talks about imagination which is the major part of a poetic mind. You don't need to travel anywhere, but your imaginative mind takes you everywhere you want to be!
