It seems my thoughts are stale, Like old gigger ale. Like a beer with no head- I'll pass up instead. Yet if I linger awhile, Thoughts will grow. Words will take shape From a mind that's awake. Never let a thought Go un-heeded. Just write it down, And you'll lose your frown. Brighten someones day With what you say. Don't be clever(wise guy)- No, never never.

I think the thoughts,
and jot them down.
Both the sane,
and the unsound.
Eventually there will be,
a poem to be found.

I think your thoughts are fine, nothing like old ginger ale & I try to not let my thoughts go un-heeded and write them down except just as I am trying to get to sleep & I think I will remember them in the morning, yeah right, sure I will... <smiles> -e-
