Just My Imagination
Imagining You
Is it just my imagination
Or are you really real?
Are you really holding me right now
And making me to feel....
That all my dreams might come to pass
And all my hopes come true
Are you really telling me to dream
But dream of only you?
You need not ask that question, love
For there is no one else
That can make me dream such magic things
Not even my own self.
I do not know where you came from
What star from whence you fell
What moon beam dropped you in my life
For the sun won't even tell.
One day I woke and you were here
Where you'd never been before
Walking up my garden path
And knocking on my door.
The bluebirds serenaded
The rose expressed perfume
The buttercups stood up and danced
With the moon flower and the moon.
And the sound of music filled the air
Pianos, violins
Saxophones and guitar strings
From the hands of holy men.
I looked around to see if I
Had died and gone to Heaven
For you were an angel standing there
That my heart had surely beckoned.
But then you smiled and shook your head
No, I am real, you see
For the angels heard you when you cried
And they have dispatched me.
For I was crying, too, you know
And longing for your love
And wondering if we'd ever meet
And they watched us from above.
It's not imagination
No matter how you feel
We may have been born in that good place
But you and I are real.
And I have come to take you to
That paradise you seek
It's in a world you may not know
For your heartsight has grown weak.
The world that lives in here, you said
And pointed to your heart
The place that love has always been
Where we've never been apart.
And now we'll abide forever there
Where none can tear asunder
And you won't have to imagine me
Or ever have to wonder.
And I gave my hand and gave my heart
To the man that came that day
Who walked out of my hopes and dreams
And here will always stay.
That's a beautiful poem.
ReplyDeleteI love all the pictures and the songs. So I wrote my version from the pictures.
I stood there, watching her watching me. I thought, “Is it just my imagination” or is she running away with me in her mind. Then it came to me, “There ain’t no mountain high enough “ for me to go to. I knew she’d find me. I could tell it was “blowing her mind”. She was like a monitor gone “haywire”. So I sashayed over to her table and asked her if she would like a little “Sax” with her drank. So I licked the reed a little on my Sax and blew her a few notes, that’s when I caught her scent and I blew her even more “Sax”. I must have really been strolling through her mind cause she asked, “Is it just my imagination. Or are you really real?” I said how real do you want me to be “Honey?”
So I leaned over her shoulder and whispered to her, “how bout a walk in Central Park” just you and me. (We ran into Bobby McGee along the way.) “We walked and we talked. We even stopped at a park bench”. We stopped to smell some flowers and my mind began to “undress her” so I had to look away, look away, look away to another row of flowers when all uv a sudden “she grabs me and kisses me, all the while she was still half dressed in my mind.” What a “Kiss of life”, all the while I’m hanging on to my “Sax”. What a “Saxtribution”!
So I gave her 12 red roses 🌹. 11 to do as she pleases and the twelfth to remember me by. Then I handed her a “big-haired Voo card” with 12 flowerty hearts on it as we went on our way!
