Silly Thoughts
by George J. Carroll → (All Poetry by George J. Carroll)
   Rated "G" by the Author.

Mystified by the process of thought

That a busy bee can conceive.

Or that of an elephant tall,

When leaning on a slanted wall.

 

What comes to mind I can surmise,

At best, it may be wrong to do.

But there are stranger things

I can conceive than bees that sting.

 

Or an elephant  leaning on a slanted wall.

The very thought though, is amusing

If suddenly he were to fall;

I'd split my side with laughter, after all.

 

But those are silly thoughts to have

When the world is in such a mess.

But laughter never hurt a soul

And that has been my goal.

It's good to laugh. There's way too much to cry about.

Love ya!

Humor is the spice of life...
and to take the time for silly thoughts...
is refreshing to the soul...

Laughter, smiles and a giggle are the best medicine...
A marvelous goal George...

Falling cracks me up too, big time
(as long as no-one is hurt of course)
I laugh real hard at the Bull fight rodeo(s)
it's cruel I know, but I can't help it as I
always root for the bulls to win :)

Laughter makes us forget, at least for awhile, George.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
