Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.
— Louisa May Alcott
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
There's beauty in imagining bright things,
It lights our dark future with hopeful dreams ~
Visions of peasants ordained to be kings;
And plebeians crowned as queens, so it seems.
It charts dream paths filled with radiant beams.
Imagination hears when scarecrow groans,
It makes us squeeze water from desert stones;
It digs deep oceans in hot desert sand,
Taking us from known realms to worlds unknown,
Where minds can wander free at their command.
