Rambling Thoughts Need to Quiet
Posted by Erin Mansfield
So many thoughts do ramble past
Some snag, causing them to persist
Looping thoughts just never end
Ideas that seemed dead, rise again
Pointless debates do vigorous battle
While shadows hide murky troubles
A whirlwind of thought, scatters a mind
Thoughts overwhelmingly fulfill desire
Seductively touching flights of temptation
Always concurring courageous adventures
Or suffocate in snares of tremendous pain
Stumbling fears of all treachery and torture
Toss one into the bubbling depths of sorrow
Unsettling highs and lows, skew perception
The stream of thoughts dwindle to a drip
A calmness clears the fog from the waters
Contented silence melts away the irrelevant
Silence concentrates focus onto the brilliant
Refining the nugget into the purest gold
Time, space and age manage to disappear
A quiet mind finds purpose in the imperfect
Some snag, causing them to persist
Looping thoughts just never end
Ideas that seemed dead, rise again
Pointless debates do vigorous battle
While shadows hide murky troubles
A whirlwind of thought, scatters a mind
Thoughts overwhelmingly fulfill desire
Seductively touching flights of temptation
Always concurring courageous adventures
Or suffocate in snares of tremendous pain
Stumbling fears of all treachery and torture
Toss one into the bubbling depths of sorrow
Unsettling highs and lows, skew perception
The stream of thoughts dwindle to a drip
A calmness clears the fog from the waters
Contented silence melts away the irrelevant
Silence concentrates focus onto the brilliant
Refining the nugget into the purest gold
Time, space and age manage to disappear
A quiet mind finds purpose in the imperfect
