Imagination

Imagination ( you are never too young or too old to put your imagination to use) Imagine the concert The concert did not cost a dime But every soul was there- from the beginning of time . It was the biggest concert the heavens had ever seen. The greatest dancers and singers that were ever known. On the largest television screen it was shown. You had the crooners, the swooners, the rockers, the boppers, and the opera singers All gathered together for one big show. In heaven- this is the way to go. It started off with the “tappers” coming on to the stage All well known in the archives of fame. First Bill “Bo jangles” Robinson with Fred Astaire in back . Then Jean Kelly. Ginger Rodgers, and Gregory Hines picking up the slack. Then came the female singers who were all In the hall of fame, and all well known by their names. Billie holiday , Lena Horne , Doris Day and Peggy Lee Judy Garland and Dinah Shore-and lets not forget The Andrew Sisters- who gave us so much more. Then out came the male singers who touched the Hearts of women all around the world And made all their hair stand up and curl. Mario Lanza , Frank Sinatra, Perry Como, Dean Martin Just to name a few, then let us not forget the soul singers Otis Redding ,Sam Cooke, and Nat “king” Cole Then Marvin Gaye who really put on a show. OH ! This concert was a wonder to behold ! And the greatest one was yet to unfold. Everyone waited in anticipation As the angels blew their trumpets And the harps let out the most beautiful melody. For behind that big curtain Walked out our all Mighty King. All knees bent ,and all heads bowed You couldn’t hear a pin drop Not a single solitary sound. He gave the heavens his blessings As every face lit with delight And all the way to earth You could see this glaring light. This is the concert- that one day we may all see If we follow his words, and help to save all humanity.
