Excellent Villanelle : Flight of Fancy by Bucketlist

Imagination gives you wings Noone can take that right You can be so many things Bless freedom that it brings Doesn't matter, day or night Imagination gives you wings Go to where your heart sings Fly high with all your might You can be so many things New love which desire brings In dreams let passion ignite Imagination gives you wings  Find places where hope springs Dreams are flexible not contrite You can be so many things If you’re a puppet, cut strings Life is there, dream of flight You can  be so many things Imagination gives you wings   Author Notes STYLE--Villanelle TOPIC--FLYING (keep it clean) ******* Villanelle-- 19 Line poem very specific rhyming scheme: aba aba aba aba aba abaa.
