Imagine…

“Imagine”

Thank you for your beautiful inspiration, John Lennon.

freckled Obi-wan imagines a cure

Imagine there’s no diabetes
It’s hard, but do please try
No finger pricks upon us
Inside us Islets thrive
Imagine all the Type Ones
Living without fear…

Imagine there’s no needles
It might be hard to do
Nothing to poke or bleed for
And no carb-counting too

   Imagine all the Type Ones
                              Living life with peace…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday we’ll have our cure
And our pancreas will be as one

to be anything, imagine that you already are

Imagine no auto-immune destruction
I wonder if we can
No need for tests and insulin
A brotherhood of T cells
Imagine all our immune system
Sharing all their space…

You may say I’m a dreamer

But I’m not the only one…

I hope someday we’ll have our cure
And our immune cells will live as one.
