About This Poem

'Closest thing to Crazy'


"That thing" that doesn't have a name but in the end it envelopes you It takes on a life of its own even your moods are determined by "that thing" try and shrug it off; it will cling to you – From its cocoon it will sometimes flourish into something beautiful "that thing" Sometimes elude you and me especially when all you wish for is for “it to happen” it has the strangest timing

    It catches you off balance to straighten you back up! Just think if we could see the "Thing", coming. We probably wouldn't know what a blessing was!...you got me thinking hard with this piece. You have to warn me, when you're going to tickle my brain : )! Very intriguing write!

    LOVE that forth verse especially, Wilma! And the last verse describes "that thing" perfectly...can't be forced, it just has to kind of come on it's own...great poem, my friend! - Tim

    Is this "the crazy little thing called Love?" YOu must know the song, right? This is very clever, Wilma. Enjoyed seeing you here. I have been up since 4 a.m with insomnia. BAD things happening for me since yesterday and hubbie going to ER. The bill is going to be staggering and the one good news, is I think it was all a false alarm. He will get his MRI results tomorrow but I think the stroke he imagined he had was just a sinus infection they spotted with one of the cat scans he got!
