Sitting here in my easy chair,
gathering thoughts from everywhere.

Writing thoughts from my past,
some come slow some come fast.

I could write about a midnight dreary,
that’s been done, but not to clearly.

I could slip into abstract thought,
and start to bore you, I’ve been caught.

I could write about insanity,
but I would have to use profanity.

I could write about a mountain high,
I could embellish or outright lie.

I could tell about when I was a lad,
but that’s long ago and very sad.

I could write about going to hell,
but an unknown author has done that well.

I could write about a God so mighty.
but I don’t think I could do that tidy.

Dogs and cats I have no clue,
so that is another one I couldn't do.

This is about what I could have done ,
if I just knew how to write you one.

Chops, good rhyme. I just want to know how many times  you rock your chair for each pair?

Very clear mind and clear poem. I liked it.  you could write about your food too.
What is passing your window now?
