The world we create inside the mind,
Where goodness reigns from sea to sea,
Cannot be tossed and left behind
When the world has more that we can be.
Imagination drives and thrives,
Once a wagon, now a car.
Productive ideas ensure we survive,
Within a journey around our star.
The mythic past can’t be ignored,
They were our first foundation steps,
And make sure life can be restored
Instead of wasting in the depths.
Tomorrow brings another day,
And in that day, tomorrow’s strife,
But we’ve proven we can make our way,
And make for us a better life.
