Risky Business

Within the imagination lives a breath of fresh air.
A city full of people sharing and caring.
A man with a limp walks with his cane telling his community about all good things.
A child laughs in the park as her dog runs to catch a ball.
The wind is high and kites are let loose in the sky.
               What a pleasure to see joy in so many eyes.

Within another realm is a normal world where people raise families without 
     blemishes or scares.
This is where heterosexuals experience life and hold fast to their wedding vows.
They work for a meaningful existence and strive to do what is right.
               This is a world of pitfalls and perils afire.

Within the world and of God are the people of the universe.
Profound in faith and religion, they thrive on Mother Earth.
Knowing that two wrongs do not make right, they praise God and others are 
     atheist.
	       This is a universe perilous.	

(WE ARE OUR OWN CREATION.)

a wonderful write . . . I believe one or our greatest gift that we received was our imagination . . . to see the invisible, to conceive a better world, to make dreams become reality. It is unfortunate that we are not encouraged more to use our imagination. All the best Verlena

Thanks David for your super-awesome response. Imagination is for our home front. We are our own creation. LVerlena

Thoughts and imagination comes to life each day. We are made in God's creative image so we are endless in our possibilities. I enjoyed this piece, yes it is indeed a risky business!
