Not forged in steel or iron set
The wander way that mind may go
So free to dream or just forget
The many thoughts that moment’s sow

In sweet adventure, soul’s retreat
Or land of drought that shows no spring
All passing thoughts; though some repeat
Fate and time do moments bring

Attuned to waves that float and call
Notes which sing or scream my name
Hearing one and hearing all
Melding sounds that sound the same

Wake is time, fulfillment find
Uncover eyes and feel the day
A magnet is the open mind
And all the answers come its way

And visit comes each thought as one
And of we chat to find the way
Finding peace, confused by none
In field of flowers play

So let the thoughts and voices come
One by one contend their plea
Then the play and game is fun
And in yourself you’re free

Beautiful thoughts, and a lovely poem to sit over and do just like you say, let the words and thoughts roll over.
