Centering Poem: Pure Imagination by Robert Dahl


You may want to hear the Robert Dahl song "Pure Imagination", you may remember it from the Chocolate Factory. Here is the poem:


Pure Imagination

Come with me and you’ll be In a world of pure imagination Take a look and you’ll see Into your imagination We’ll begin with a spin Trav’ling in the world of my creation What we’ll see will defy Explanation If you want to view paradise Simply look around and view it Anything you want to, do it Want to change the world, there’s nothing to it There is no life I know To compare with pure imagination Living there, you’ll be free If you truly wish to be –Roald Dahl, all rights reserved





Centering Reflective Writing: As you read what you wrote reflect on the following: What do you notice? What are you aware of? What do you feel? What are you curious about? As you reflect on the poem end with reflecting on what you learn. If images came to you, you are welcome to draw them or collage them in your journal. Sharing is optional, your post are welcome.



Centering Ritual: Throughout the week, lay on your belly, or in different position where feel comfortable. Close your eyes and take flight. Imagine yourself soaring...and let your self belly laugh through your imaginary adventure.

Thank you Dr. Ortega for allowing your centering ritual first published in Open Plaza to be the inspiration for grounding, centering and creative self expression. Modified by adding the Pure Imagination song by Glee with lyrics.
