My Imagination

Creativity is my go to place
I am constantly listening to my imagination
She is frisky and fun, and keeps me on an even plane
It is my place when I am sad, mad, angry, depressed.

Napping is my favorite way to get in touch
Because mornings are busy, but afternoons not so much
When my life is caving in, and I am losing my mind or having a breakdown
I take to my bed, to regenerate and replenish the real me.

The me that is hiding from the others
Which is everyone else, showing herself in bits and spurts
On her own terms, not honest with most
For there is a frightened one inside and we have to protect her
By being creatively unstoppable and strong.

From this Caren I imagine a restless child watching you napping ever so eagerly waiting for you to wake up. So you can recant them a story from your imagination

You are lucky that you can fall back on your imagination when most needed, Caren. even if that has to occur under her own terms! ~ Regards // paul
