Imagine

Sit down at an airport for a minute and you'll see what I mean.

 

Imagine.

 

If every insult ever shed

Was made into a house of lead.

Imagine.

 

If every tear that we let drop

Somehow nourish every crop.

 Imagine.

 

If every pang of hunger felt

Conspired to make hatred melt.

Imagine.

 

If every weakness of the blind

 Replenished hollows of the mind.

Imagine.

 

 

 

If every time we're crushed on tile,

A frown can bloom into a smile.

Imagine.

 

If in the thunder there is fright,

In the dark there can be light.

Imagine.

 

Since every precept of the kind

makes us fall one step behind.

Imagine.

 

If what is not seen

Makes faith grow,

How can they doubt

What we know?

 

Imagine.

Pause our lives.

Drop our knives.

And said a prayer in silence.

Imagine.

Imagination, I liked how you in different wrods were saying imagine if this was different, and so on. I thought this was a lovely poem, and so true. Great work!
