One’s mind is the only place where one is actually free . Experiences. Feelings . Moments. They mould our thoughts and hence we sail amongst the tides of what we believe may happen . We fly, even without wings. We take flight with our imagination.Having a good imagination always helps see things differently.It has the power to create something beautiful out of what the mundane consider useless.
PENNY THOUGHTS
Brilliant billion pennies thrown,
They dance on porcelain floors; And as they twinkle and turn, 
Not one complains or moans.
Silent to their insult, stoic poses,
Knowing time shall play to their advantage;
For in time of little and in dearth,
All shall know the penny’s worth.
And then its rightful place shall the penny regain,
Jingling in pockets, safe in a purse.
TO STAND IN MY OWN
I chose not to rhyme, but inadvertently do,
To please no one, more than I care too.
I shall not bend to the slight of your grin,
The snigger in your voice, the demons within
I care not what you write, I care not for opinions,
They sway in the wind of change like dandelions.
And do not perceive my heart, soft and defenseless,
I suffocate in the walls I have built, tall and endless.
Nor shall your untruths tarnish my soul,
I must stand in the integrity of my own.
If to fight for truth is to stand alone,
I shall die within myself, to the world unknown.
