“Seven Small Letters” by Kerry Gittins”

Leave a comment

Seven small letters is all that you need
to IMAGINE new things, to plant a new seed.
IMAGINE you’ve climbed to the top of a tree
and see a horizon as wide as can be.

IMAGINE you are a dragon or bird
or sitting on top of a star. How absurd!
IMAGINE a day with rain or with snow
and when they are done, out comes a rainbow.

IMAGINE adventure upon the high seas
with treasure and pirates with knobbly knees.
IMAGINE you’re now tucked up safe in your bed
and those seven letters spell DREAMER instead.
