Young Einstein

Through youthful flights, you pursued light
past other observations blurred

envisioning velocities
impossible to be inferred

and proved to dreamers they were right
to give imagination wings

and chase strange thoughts outside the known
and soar above what once was shown

so science hears as vision sings
of theories glimpsed beyond the binds

where narrow sights confining minds
divide us where we might relate.

How you remind us to suppose
and commend us to create!
