Tread soft if you would follow where they lead.
Speak not and hear their voices on the wind.
Within your fertile mind behold a seed
of promise and renewal that begins
when inklings for the first time are revealed.
Play Ball! The Ump does call out of left field.

Some inklings are a very sporting type
but shun all of the lime-light and the hype.
It seems they often hide more than they seek
(as most of what they say is tongue in cheek )
and there-in lies the truth behind the fact.
Some inklings simply don't know how to act!

They're always causing trouble that's their style.
They plague me when I'm writing all the while.
A piece that one would write most serious
comes out as if one were delirious!
There's no way one can fathom much less know
how far some inklings are willing to go!

Tread soft if you would follow where they lead,
then run away or such is what you'll read!
