A Poem On My Mind

Went to bed last night
A poem on my mind
  Fell fast asleep
  The day left behind

Came the morning
That poem was gone
  No sense crying
  Time hurries on

Funom Makama Date: 4/29/2020 10:18:00 PM hahahahahaha... Typical, so typical. Sometimes I will be in the shower and an inspiration will come.. Before I finish bathing, BOOM! It disappears, no matter how I try to memorize some selected keywords from the inspiration. I totally relate with this. Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 4/30/2020 9:30:00 AM BOOM! There goes another poem. :) gw

Ilene Bauer Date: 4/29/2020 3:07:00 PM i've certainly had this happen, gershon! even repeating it over and over won't guarantee that it will still be there in the morning. the only real way to save it is to get out of bed and write it down, as annoying as that it. you've captured this feeling well...

Darlene De Beaulieu Date: 4/29/2020 2:09:00 PM Hello Gershon Wolf, When you have a poem in your thoughts, wake up write the title. Then in the morning write the poem. This happens to me, and i just write the title down and then write the poem. Most of my ideas comes from my dreams. be safe. Enjoy your day my fiend.
