Imagination (Poem)


What if air was like water and we could all fly?
What if the sea was not much different from the sky?

We'd be soaring through the air,
Like birds on wings.
I could fly around the world,
See many wondrous things.

What if gravity has no hold on us,
And we could jump ten feet in the air?
I bet everyone down on the streets,
Would gasp, stop and stare.

I could do things I couldn't do,
Be someone I couldn't be.
But.
Not when I'm still stuck on land,
Defied by boring gravity.

What if the world goes topsy turvy,
And the sky becomes the floor?
What if the ground becomes our ceiling,
And gravity thrown out the door?

I will walk on the clouds with you,
In the sunny month of May.
We will float down to outer space,
See the endless Milky Way.

I close my eyes and smile,
As I picture this in my head.
The wonders of imagination..

It's time to go to bed.
