Analysis of Thoughts



Thoughts intertwine
Attached by
A single fragile knot,
They twist and turn
As skyward they lift.
Like lost balloons
They tangle and drift
Rising on the air,
Tails waving
Past feathery clouds.
Multicoloured visions
Ambiguous as dreams,
Blowing and flowing.
Whispering hushed memories
Of exquisiteness almost grasped,
Before time elapsed.
Whirling away
They fall and stay,
Ghostly apparitions
Of what might have been.
