Imagination Gave Me Wings

When I was a child I had a big imagination, I imagined that I was a beautiful butterfly. I resembled a girl and fairy, a lovely combination. I had the urge to fly high in the big azure sky. My wings were so mesmerizing and pleasing to the eye. Without my vast imagination pain would’ve won. It allowed healing from things that weighed a ton. As I write I fly high above a melancholy past, Each day that I live I aim to give life a big blast. Alexis Y. 11/15/2021

We would live in an entirely different world if parents asked their children what they think. instead of telling them what to think! Enjoyed! Aloha!

I am glad that you had such a great imagination and that it helped you soar above the problems and hurts. I used to dream that something was after me and that I would run and start flying. Your visit to my page was delightful. Sara

Wonderful Alexis. I think kids who have a hard childhood build a wonderful world for themselves in which they are loved and accepted and excel in all that they do. That's what I did. Good stuff here my friend. Bravo. God Bless, JB

Even as a child you thought like a poet, we encounter a lot of grief on the path of life but we rise above it. Hope you're keeping well. Tom
