Imagination's Power
In the realm of thoughts and dreams, imagination thrives,
A force that shapes our world, as it effortlessly derives.
From deep within our minds, it conjures visions bright,
Transforming dull reality into a vibrant, wondrous sight.
With imagination's power, we can transcend the ordinary,
Unlocking doors to possibilities, no longer arbitrary.
Beliefs take root and grow, fueled by imaginative flames,
Molding our perspective, changing the way life claims.
In the tapestry of our thoughts, imagination weaves,
Unseen threads of wonder, where magic never leaves.
It paints our inner landscapes with colours bold and true,
Creating a canvas where fantasies come alive, anew.
Imagination whispers, "Dream beyond what you see,
For within your thoughts lies the power to set thoughts free."
It shows us that our minds are boundless, with no end,
And with a touch of magic, our world becomes a friend.
Encouragement From Others
Imagination, the glue that binds our fate,
Unleashing visions, thoughts of boundless state,
With creativity's touch, new strategies unfurl,
Bringing possibilities to shape the world.
Encouragement from others lights the way,
Guiding us through darkness, doubters may say,
In their belief, our dreams find firm love and tether,
For imagination's force holds strategies together.

With steadfastness in heart, we dare to dream,
And find in God's embrace our eternal beam.

Exploring realms of knowledge, seeds of curiosity sown.
Great discoveries have shown, as history proudly displays,
Imagination's influence, lighting the path in countless ways.

A lightning strike of hope, where ignorance no longer constrains.
By creating new knowledge, the world expands its view,
And the tapestry of wisdom is woven, vibrant and true.

Endless adventures they'll steadfastly begin.

Oh, the delight when simplicity is spun!
Children's imagination—always number one.

Imagination's whimsy, ever on show!
