Ingenuity

As I stare at the blank wall
My eyes see nothing
But when I close them shut
I can see everything
For my mind is a door that opens up to my imagination

A precious gift that God has given us
To create, to dream and to believe
Yet before anything, there was nothing
And with creation, now there’s something
For my mind is a door that opens up to my imagination

And as I think of ways to share my creations
I realize that it’s our creativity
That gives the upper hand to humanity
For my mind is a door that opens up to my imagination

But within our minds we create sin
Lust, greed, envy and four others
For what we think, we tend to act on
Now disorder and destruction comes along
For my mind is a door that opens up to my imagination

Though life as we not it would not exist
If we humans weren’t blessed with the gift
Known as Ingenuity

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A few years ago a friend of mine began writing a story, which made me think about the full expectations of human kind. Therefore i wrote this poem expressing my thoughts and feeling of what makes us "powerful."
