Imagination

What is it about tales of fantasy that draws us into their shimmering webs?

"Imagination"

Tell me a story,
Weave me a tale,
Show me a world where pirates set sail.

Give me adventure,
A quest and a goal;
Seach for the pieces of something once whole.

An ancient legend
Or some prophecy
Predicting an evil that will soon come to be.

Let magic be common
Its being not denied
And a heroine could do anything if she tried.

The hero protects her
And saves her from harm
(Although he's a jerk, he has some roguish charm).

And you can't really leave
This place far behind
But too bad for me, it's all in my mind.
