I could walk on clouds
And catch moonbeams in my hands;
Kiss the morning dew as it fell
And chase the rays of the sun in the morning light.
What could you do ?
I could dream upon a mountain,
Bathe in its ice-cold streams,
Whistle to the birds and whisper on the wind.
Could you ?
We could marvel in the night,
Chase spiders away,
Get close to the sand and count its many grains.
Could you ? Could we ?
We should journey then,
Open the doors to our imagination,
Fly off the face of the earth
And touch the heavens.
Come with me, for we have much to learn,
And many things to see.
Open the doors, let the light stream in,
And join in the race to the stars.
Come! Let’s not wait! We must go!

Do you let your imagination roam free? Do you question, and look, and wonder?
Here’s a lovely inspirational poem about spring by Alan Harris called ‘Our First Warm Day’
