Mindflight
Bubbles of imagination, in our childhood daze,
Waft away on gleaming dreams in unpredicted ways.
Some see an orb and note the swirling bits of hue,
Another watches as its path drifts gently out of view.
The playful mind takes flight as gentle pinpricks of the damp,
Propel the thoughtful consequence in this jolly training camp.
Are these the new Montgolfiers, to teach us all to fly?
Or will they be explorers in another realm of Why?
They reach for understanding, and enjoy the search as well.
That the teacher likes the process is an easy thing to tell.
The mind expands when it has wonder in its view,
And the youngest minds are always most accepting of the new.
