Chasing a thought

As it escapes my grasp.

It is one step away;

Frustrating, you might say.

 

Never-the-less I plug on,

Eventualy it will tire.

It is then I'm in control,

When all is said and done.

 

Elusive as it can be,

I let it have its way.

Yes, a poet needs thoughts.

Without them, where would he be?

To paraphrase the classic poem, "catch a rising thought and put it in your pocket, save it for a rainy day."

As I sat down to write my poem for this week, today, I didn't have thought. since it is the fourth of July, I finally had to write a poem about that because that was all I was thinking about.

I hope you caught my drift, I caught yours.
