Imagination.

Goldfinch60



 

I sit in front of the blank page

Wondering what words

Will come from my imagination,

I have the knowledge to write those words,

But knowledge is what I have learned

It can be so limiting.

Imagination is the unknown,

It is the thoughts of what might be.

Imagination has no boundaries,

And will always surprise me.

    Good write Gold. Now we didn't imagine being there in 1066. We was there in persons! You packing your bags for the trip soon? Heehee some relatives of mine are actually going there that weekend!

    Beautiful description of imagination, Goldfinch! You are right, it will surprise us again and again! Without it we could not function.

                I relate to this poem, good writing

                • Goldfinch60

                  Thank you WL. Your imagination must be infinite as you write, paint and play your music.

                • orchidee

                  Did we "imagine" being there in 1066? Doubt it was imaginary, cos I yelled 'Look up, sire'! Oh why did I say such a thing?!

                  • Goldfinch60

                    No we were there, that one error of yours changed the course of English history and we just cannot imagine what our lives would have been like if Harold had remained king. It is probably OK in one of our parallel universes when all alternatives are infinite.

                  • Louis Gibbs

                    Imagination is the key component in being human. I doubt that any A-I endowed robot will ever achieve it. Good write, Goldie!

                    • Goldfinch60

                      Thank you Louis. No I too doubt that A-I will have imagination.

                    • malubotelho

                      Very nice write Goldie. Imagination is everything. It is our unlimited factory. One can order anything. Just fabulous.

                      • Goldfinch60

                        Thank you Malu, yes imagination is is everything.
