Analysis of Thoughts



You have a thought preserve it if you can,
Don't delay its existence use it and plan,
Within only seconds it's lost and gone,
You can ponder and later search long.

Gems and treasure the potential is great,
Ignore even momentarily it's then too late,
You never recover what you could share,
Forget the clock record it right there!

Try as you may you simply can't recall,
As you concentrate there's this brick wall,
Men and women from all over the place,

Know what I mean it's gone without trace!

stan brierly

I have been writing poems for forty years and written about all sorts of things. Somehow I get creating streaks and can write up to 4 or 5 poems at once of varying subjects. I find it is a good way to record events of the day and bring history to life.The mental aspect is a balance against keeping fit,work and life in general. more…
