“Imagination is the only weapon in the war against reality.” Lewis Carrol
Close Your Eyes The world needs to lie down and rest awhile, to let the weight of days past settle, allowing us to float into dreams of unknowing, to wander into imaginations wild, to let the sap rise juicy within us, for until we imagine, a new future is on hold, so, close your eyes and dream awhile.

I love the Lewis Carrol quote. It validates where my head is right now. I also love your poem. (My mother would have sent the world to its room to listen to music and not come out until it’s fit for polite society.)
