A Fallen Thought

Searching the roadside

For a thought that fell off.

Rounding a corner too fast,

Caused my thought to go astray.

 

There in the meadow it lies,

I can hear it calling to me.

Buried neath the brambles,

Too deep for me to see.

 

I shall prompt it to call often

That I may follow its voice.

With one last whimper I heard,

And rushed to find my fallen thought.

What a playful poem, George, especially the 'Rounding a corner too fast,' -- neat way to put how zooming life is. ~~ Diana

I wouldn't do that while I was driving if I were you. On the other hand, I really love the imagery portrayed in this poem about losing one's train of thought.

Ron

On second thought, I think I'll go catch that train again.
