Imagination

*Jean-Etienne Liotard* Young Girl Singing

Who
Can
Say
It’s
Wrong
To
Dream
The
World
Away
In
A
Song?
To
Understand
A
Treasured
Book,
Purer
And
More
Just
Than
Anywhere
You
Look?
Lose
The
Desire
To
Warm
The
Heart
Before
Fantasy’s
Fire?
Not
Step
Into
Art
And
Become
A
Part
Of
Another
Life?
I Say
Not
Me,
Not
For
An
Entire
Day
Can
I Step
Away
One
Degree
From
The
Nourishing
Bread
Of
All
I’ve
Read
Or
Seen.
In
My
Soul,
They
Sparkle
And
Shine,
And
Are
Wholly
Mine.
