Bundle of Thoughts

Words and wisdom, space and time,
Dreams of the poet, versed in rhyme,

Visions of love, lost or found,
Hopes of the heart, freely bound,

I read with joy, the phrases written,
And smile inside, with a memory smitten,

Each line or stanza, carefully placed,
Yet how many came first, then erased,

But in the end, a work to behold,
To be enjoyed, by young and old,

It’s sort of,

Sort of like a little bundle of thoughts,
Went skipping through our minds,

We grab a handful, pull them out,
And write them for all to find.

I hope you find my little bundles, Enjoyable.  WT.


The answer is always NO, Until the question is asked.

Indeed I did enjoy your little bundle of thoughts, dear Poet! In fact, I am saving them ~ if you do not mind, to a folder of poetic thoughts about poets and their writing of poetry!

Well done! Love it!

P.S. Nice to see your handsome smiling face!

WT,

You have some good lines, and good ideas here in this well written poem.

Now loosen your tie, you'll be more comfortable.

(I know you won't, and I understand.)
