Imagination

by Mousie   Jan 27, 2007


Use it to escape
Your rushed reality,
Use it to believe yourself
And how joyful you can be.

Use it to relieve
Your woeful misery,
Use it to hold onto
Your inner-child's glee.

Use it to relinquish
Cupid's want for all,
Use it to release your heart
And truly in love fall.

Use it to drift off
That daydream we all yearn,
Use it for your future
Or simply just to learn.

The most important quality
Pretend and life's relation,
Never let it leave your mind
Treasure the imagination.

bored in chem class, this was the result lol.

    This is one of those poems that if you don't already know the title, it will leave you in suspense as to the meaning until the very last line. In which case you'll want to go back and read it again to clarify your understanding - it's a clever tool.
    I agree, and think all those uses of the imagination are well portrayed.
    I seem to use mine for what's said in the fourth stanza - where do you think my poetry comes from? And it seems yours does too. It seems you had a productive chem class, and you got something great out of it.
    The rhyme though on the third stanza is forced...I say that because in spoken English it would be "and truly fall in love," rather than what is said in your poem.
    That's it, that's all I can say.
    Thanks for sharing.
