THE WONDER OF YOUR IMAGINATION

Do you remember
the wonder of your imagination,
imagining a spy around the corner
while your brother read a book nearby.

Do you remember
the first time you saw a guitar,-
the first time you saw the string buzz.

Do you remember
learning a story
where the hero felt scared and powerless,
only to later prevail.

Do you remember the day
that a yellow flower's petals
fell from your hands, like feathers,
like dreams coming to the Earth.
