David Crandall Poet Rhyme

Bedtime

I go to bed.  It’s been a long day.
All of the day’s cares melt away.
There’s no guessing what I might ponder.
My mind leaves my body to wander,
Taking flight, leaving reason behind,
It has its own mind.  It’s unconfined.
It flies to the sky, drops in a well,
Visits heaven, and it visits hell.

Gershon Wolf April 21, 2024 at 8:32 PM I guess 'you don't mind' making the rounds at night there, David. lol. Startling, that last line. ~ gw David Crandall April 21, 2024 at 9:49 PM Haha, I actually, love when my minds goes all over the place - sometimes, it goes to dark places, which isn't too great, but sometimes, strangely, I like to follow it wherever it goes.
