Through A Screen

Location

Some of the most moving moments in life

Are when we are are sitting on our couches

Snug in our beds

Or eating popcorn

While gazing about a screen

Into a story beyond our own

Captivating audiences around the world

Transporting us to places we may never see

Times we can never visit

There is a special charm that comes along

Holding a controller to claim your destiny

As the hero of another world

Being alongside family and friends

As your internally cheering for a character

To not open that forbidden door in a horror movie

A popular escape

A haven for the bored

An opportunity for the adventurous

No matter who that person may be

Staring through the screen

Or the story they are creating for themselves

They can spend some time in a place where anything can happen
