MAKE BELIEVE

Between the realms of Knowing and Believing
Lies Make Believe, a magic kingdom of
Enchanted fantasy beyond conceiving
Except through wonder, marvel, hope and love.

Just as ’twixt night and day exists a zone
Of twilight in which ecstasy abounds,
So in the mind Imagination’s throne
Amazes reason and plain sense astounds.

How do you go there, how do you escape
The dismal region of the everyday?
How can Imagination change the shape
Of sorrow and despair, turn toil to play?

Just close your eyes and dream and you shall see
How fantasy remakes reality.
