Imagination!
What wondrous things Imagination brings,
If we have but the gumption to look;
Glorious kings or poisonous rings,
Pulled straight out of a book;
Horses that fly or foxes that spy,
Things that go bump in the night;
Learn to defy those things they deny,
Because suppression just isn’t right;
Feel with your nose or smell with your toes,
Our minds can conquer it all;
Dream of a rose that grows and grows,
Or perhaps that stays very small;
There is no end, neither foe or friend,
And it’s all trapped inside our brains;
Just because it’s penned doesn’t mean it’s pretend,
Nor does it mean your insane;
Dreams get trapped and then they adapt,
Until they become a creation,
Like a continent mapped or present unwrapped,
When we use our Imagination!
