Poems Happen

Poems happen all day long
All you need do is observe
No need to rack your li'l old brain
Soon have a bunch in reserve

Your brain will be on overload
Fingers will pound the keys
Illusive thoughts will pop right in
You'll probably need to pee

Won't believe how easy they'll come
Poems will literally flow
Body will start to shimmy and shake
Tremble right down to your toes

But one thing please be careful of
Take a break every now and then
Or your overtaxed brain'll get all mushy
And drive you round the bend

Just a bit of friendly advice
How I see it for what it's worth
Everything in moderation, my friends
Your life will be filled with mirth

Hey Jack!!......I had to comment on this..........because I do this "ALL the time".........poems just write themselves.......like the one I did last night called Eden's Reptile...........I saw a picture and the words just popped out........I think it took all of 7 minutes to write.........you have some VERY funny lines in this piece too..........like "you'll probably need to pee" (smiles)...........you're a VERY interesting writer my friend........not taking yourself too seriously is compelling...........well done brother..............T xo

Slowing Down

My gait is much slower
My memory's shot
The hair on my beano
Is thinning a lot...
