Analysis of Ideas

Joe Strickland 1986 (Hobbysville, SC)



Pens scratching paper
Ideas fly like butterflies
Minds in harmony
Brainstorming together we
Create something wonderful

Fingers dance with ease
Unleashing the thoughts within
Pages come alive
A creative symphony
Free writing sets the mind free

Groups of stars unite,
Bright and shining in the night,
Together they spark,
A cosmic swirling of light,
Clustering to make their mark.

I'm an unpublished fork lift operator by night, and a day drinker by choice. I can be followed on Twitter @JoeStricklandSC more…
