Crazy Little Thing

I have this crazy little thing I like to do,
put words together make a rhyme or two.
Dip my toes in the sands of rhyme
then make a word splash all mine.

I have this crazy little thing I like to do,
craft thoughts out with a rhyme or two.
Ink to life a thought dancing so free
zoom in hues and shades that be.

I have this crazy little thing I like to do
read the Psalms for the inspirational hue.
But because I like things simple and fun
Shel Silverstein is where my love for poetry begun.

Lots of fun, Miranda! Delightful images - "dip my toes in the sands of rhyme!" Nice play on words, Have spent many years studying the Psalms. They, too, are a source of inspiration in many "hues!" Enjoyed your bit of poetic craziness! Blessings!

It was truly a pleasure reading your magnificent poem, Miranda. On occasion, the most exquisite verses are born from the humblest of rhymes. Your poetic composition is nothing short of enchanting.
