My friend

What you think you see … Let’s pretend

Please suspend

That as long as we hold dear the Gifts of Joy and Wonder in our hearts, Childhood doesn’t really have to end!

IF: Imagining the Fantastic

IMAGINING

THE

FANTASTIC

I have found that the best form of Gymnastics

Is the flexing of childlike wonder by stretching the Fantastic

It takes mental muscle to push the adult boundary of Belief

And to live in push and pull of the All Things Possible, no matter how brief

For we are urged way before we are ready

To place our feet securely on the unsteady

As adults we are told to ignore the turquoise and focus on the green

When we know that the sun splits into varying shades the grasses’ sheen

But true Joy comes from living in the Magical Land of “IF”

For it gives our human bound Spirits that much needed lift

Thank You Kind Spirit for our Imagination, may we never take for granted this precious GIFT

One that allows us to fine tune our Inner Vision and chant in whispered wistful Prayer: “IF”
