Imagine...
The soft glow of natural light
Was the only glow you ever knew,
That there were no batteries to replace
No cords running across floors
In search of sockets for plugs;
That there were no power lines
Blocking your view of the sky
And at night when the sun went down,
Everything went black.

Imagine...
If every time you were lost in your thoughts,
Your mind started to wander;
There was no Google,
No Twitter, No Facebook,
No blogs to entertain you.
That you had to actually speak to someone
To know that they were alright,
And every time you got behind the wheel
You were completely on your own.

Imagine...
What sights remain to be seen,
Independent thoughts you had the chance to think,
People you took the time to meet--
All the sleep you finally caught up on...
And at night when the sun went down,
The stars came out.
