Imagination

 

The mind's eye casts an imagined scene

Trillions of thoughts flash on a spherical screen

 

With no effort or motion Time obeys mind’s will

Vast space is traversed though the body keeps still

 

Sensations so real; sound, colour and scents

A wishful mind wills what reality prevents

 

Dreams are drawn, whether awake or asleep,

On imagination’s canvas from knowledge’s deep

 

Thoughts and emotions in a spiral dance,

Embraced, they glide as if in a trance.

 

Does the mind expire when a mortal heart dies?

And does reality cease if one closes the eyes?

I know I can escape reality in my imagination.

Can you taste a hot cup of nutty, slightly cinnamon south american cocoa.
Smells so rich like liquid chocolate itself. What a dainty orange china cup with a gold
rim. Little chocolate bubbles.

This piece definitely fits with your pen name.. A wondering mind. Great quesitions to ponder yet not all answers can be found. A free flowing piece that engaged my own imagination as your ink came to life off the page...

Very well done! :p
