Imagine being able
to travel across time and space,
all while trying to make the world
an even greater place,
and remember to appreciate
as well as abandon hate,
to hopefully create
as well as celebrate,
especially since the power of imagination
can result in transformation,
so dare to reform by defying the norm
to weather the tempest of a powerful storm,
and strive for a sense of harmony
because being alive can be full of beauty,
and since no one knows for sure
what the future will have in store,
it would be helpful to remain truly pure
so that the heart and the soul would both endure
