Imagination


this is the voice of imagination
can you open your mind like a child
I will take you to another world    a world of spirit and tranquility
now     take a deep breath and begin to read   slowly  let my words
be your guiding light   can you hear me breathing    breathing
do you see a door   yes imagine a door    now open it and step through
imagine . . . 
you are walking in an emerald green woods   the birds are twittering
and you can hear water dripping    transcend into solitude
can you hear the trickling of a nearby stream   the rippling     
listen . . .
you are oneness with earth   let it flow through you
tall the trees that touch the azure sky   lush the ferns   mosses
beautiful and colorful the wildflowers growing in a meadow
echoing bird songs embrace you   with melodies soothing
you are in harmony with nature    free to be that child again
run . . .
in the meadow   pick the wildflowers    twirl and spin
do you hear the wind whispering in the trees   the leaves shivering
can you see the beauty in dappled shadows   rest on the soft ground
hear . . . 
the silence of tranquility    yes   you are a child again   with new eyes
    full of possibilities and imagination
