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”
