Picking Thoughts
Today I climbed to the top of my mind
To pick a bunch of thoughts
They were all ripe for the picking
Some yellow
Some orange
others still a bit green
As I held each one carefully in the palm of my hands
I serenaded it
Letting it know how much it meant to me
Then I reflected on those rejected
over the years
This one however is special
This one is sublime
This one has substance
Read the rest of the poem Show less
This one is sweet and overflowing with just jubilant juices
I am overwhelmed by the aroma
As I bit into the succulent core of one I was pleased with the taste
It was chewy
It was tangy
It was grainy all at once
I enjoyed every last iota
Happily I carried on packing my basket with new ideas that blossomed from these young thoughts
I found everything fresh flavorful and fruity
The predicamen is which precious fruit do I give away, let slide, or overlook from the thoughts I picked today
My basket is full
My conclusion is made
My discourse is ready
So I climbed down from the staircases of my mind to examine the bounty
On the fairgrounds of this moment
Will you listen while I pick them apart?

"all the savory, juicy thoughts I found in your basket. I wish you had spent a little more time in associating the fruits you have with the fair. It seems like it was tossed in there just for filler. ~ Geezer." -
