The Opening of Young Minds

A novel or short story is always more formal But, here now’s a poem of the paranormal There are a few theories beyond understanding Well, as so many say, “Seeing is believing!” A night as a youngster with friends all around Telekinesis revealed, for skeptics abound Doubts set aside, proof right before eyes No wires, no mirrors; a gift in disguise? A life-changing event, so simple in stature Reveals hidden truths around us in nature Skeptics and doubters would still seek and search They would pick up the vase and peer at its perch! In the end there’s only one thing they could think It’s funny how knowledge can bring one to the brink Magic is real reckons the newly opened mind Stringent rules of physics will no longer bind! It seemed such a wonder there in the night A mind reeled and a soul gave up the fight Concepted world to never again be the same Take it as it comes voted the name of the game! Do you believe in this story? Not that it matters, For truth sometimes comes to us on silver platters How hard must it hit you before you realize Some mysteries are real, but hidden from our eyes.

My Time Warp Contest Entry. Hope you like it. I really did feel my hair stand on end when the vase crossed the room. I think she works for the CIA now.
