Stray Thoughts

 If I had a dollar

For every stray thought

That has passed through my mind,

I would be a rich fellow.

 

Seldom do I gather them up

And put them to print.

That takes some effort,

Which I lack most of the time.

 

O let the wisdom of my years,

Embrace my feeble mind.

Let it no longer hold fast,

To the gold mine in my thoughts.

Give us those golden thoughts, George. We need them. Wonderful pen.

It looks like those stray thoughts are leaking more and more these days. I guess at some point we will all have to let them go, never to be recorded, again. I should be looking forward to it.

I feel the same way. Those stray thought come and go so fast, I'm lucky to remember any of them.

It's okay when you are sharing. I appreciate it whenever you share. It doesn't matter whether or not you're going to put them into prints, don't let that be a hindrance to your thoughts which are already printed in this forum.

Hugs,
Sandie
