The Gift to See
By: Tera
January 24, 1998
Imagination  is a gift, you know...a mighty gift indeed
the power to beat Father Time, creates the "Gift to See"

Do these words have meaning sir? These feelings, do you know?
in the gardens, shadows lurk with mental seeds to sow

In the distance, thunder roars...no one explains just why
but in it's presence, fear is born and tears fall from the sky

I can sometimes close my eyes and drift beyond the truth
the first time I felt butterflies...mere pages of my youth?

A question is the starting point, silence is the end
perhaps to reach the other side, the chicken should pretend.

The Gift will come to all one time, as quickly it will go
but Father Time consumes most minds with fear of growing old
this blinds most every soul

Walking through a misty fog, emerging from the cloud
surviving yet not knowing how, an adolescent child

Imagination is a gift, you know ....a mighty gift indeed
Most people know just black and white
the gray they do not see

                      What a gift...a mighty gift....
                      don't fear the gift, don't fear the
 

                                         "Gift to See"!
