Tale Of Imagination Poem by Amy Marie

Beside Imagination say Childhood
As the sun bowed down to Freedom's Moon.
They knew they could - and they would -
Endure the night of June.

Imagination smiled blissfully
Turned to Childhood and said -
'You are my cause - my life.
Without you I'd be dead.'

Childhood replied like light -
'Soon I'll be gone but you will stay.
Three months to live is what I have -
That's all I have - they say.'

The two friends sat in silence then
The wind brushed their straight faces
How could either know just when
Fate would take their places?

They wandered down the empty beach
Let the chilly water lick their feet
Darkness enveloped them each
On their way to their retreat.

They finally arrived at the end
As they stood by Age's grave
Joyfully they met their friend
Named 'Destiny' who would save

Them from living apart.
Imagination turned her youthful eyes
To Childhood and her soft heart.
They joined hands and got a blissful rise.

Together they'd live no matter what
Or how or why or when
They'd live together - breathe together
What Joy would join them then!
