Imagination

make and take it as you will

By Ellen StedfeldPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

everyone is angling to elude Elimination

so when your aim is to Create

you must resist Intimidation

not to shy away from edifying Valuation

learn to truly Concentrate

and then exude Illumination

fill your senses swiftly and encourage Exploration

from whence you can Conflate

new throughways without Imitation

to become someone esteemed by wise Estimation

strive to satisfy then closely Curate

endless thirst for Information

though, with one's raw emotions it can be an Evocation

to remember, compose, Complicate

then ignite this Inspiration

if art speaks to the spirit let this serve an Invocation

anytime is fine but just don't let yourself be Late

please duly take this Invitation

to awake Imagination!
