I could reach out for the stars
	or even to the planet of Mars.
I could take a nap and sleep
	without making nary a peep.

I could conquer mist and doom
	when problems on the horizon loom.
I could be a king or queen or
	anyone betwixt or ‘tween.

I could be in a hammock between two trees
	and enjoy the nature with such ease.
I could be campaigning for a better world
	or watch while others do so with my lips furled.

I could discover a new miracle drug
	or sit around saying that’s great as I shrug.
I could stumble through the forest lost and in a daze
	or write a book that to others will amaze.

I could give a hug to someone who feels lost
	Or put my life in danger no matter what the cost.
As for the memories that I recall,
	They’re always expressed in tales so tall.
