I is for Imagining
(I know, I said brevity in
form; at least the lines
are short)
Relevant elegance
Can you imagine?
Like a poet in a tuxedo
Exchanging arctic jibes
Because the penguin
Believes the poet
Is related (and
Antarctic creatures
Always make fun
Of those from the
Warm stove top that
Is the distant North
Innovation intonation
Can you imagine?
Like a singer inventing
A new octave for
A new kind of song
Everyone might hear
No one will understand
But, known or not,
The singer sings on
Abnegation imagination
Can you fathom?
Like a magician who
Returns things to the
Top hat, until the rabbit
Says, βToo much!β
As Dorothy Sayers
Might say, if toucan
Imagine, you can, too
If two can imagine,
You can, too

(Sayers is known for co-creating
Guinness ads in the 1930s,
making rounds again, as all
good things like good drinks do)

Thank you! I am relieved, since creating images (and inciting others to do the same) drove the writing.

I am taken in a field of honorable images, that bloom in front of me.

Goodness, thank you! After selecting the pairs of words, image-making was the primary task.

If you could see me, I’d be blushing in the glow of your response. Thank you for loving those lines. Seems to be a call to keep imaginatively going on.
