Wild Imaginations

They love to play a game they call ‘Let's Imagine' because they never know the things that they will do or the places they will go. They might imagine they're riding on a cloud…or walking among the stars…that they are sitting on the edge of a crescent moon their next stops…Jupiter and Mars. They might imagine themselves on a pirate ship upon the ocean…standing on its deck…or speeding across the sky holding on to the back of a dragon's neck. It's funny how, in their imaginations, you will always find…the pirates are good pirates…and their dragons…gentle and kind. They might imagine themselves inside a bubble soaring high above the land…or performing in front of thousands of people as the leaders of a band. They might imagine each raindrop is a different color…or riding with the toys on Santa's sleigh…or a world where pizza is the only meal…served three times every day. They might imagine they are in a field filled with ice cream, candy and cakes…where nothing ever melts and their stomachs never ache. They might imagine they are gliding with the birds or swimming with the fishes in the sea…for they have the power to imagine themselves to be anything they want to be. "They have such wild imaginations! " That's what their teachers and their parents say… which always makes the smile… because they can't imagine being any other way.
