Don't Mind This Poem


       Some pay no heed
          to what’s on their mind

       Others can’t bring themselves
           to say, ‘Would you mind’

        Still others are dubbed ‘no-minds’
           while the wisest amongst us 
              don’t mind keeping silent

        Though if asked what they’re thinking
              ~ reply ‘Never mind.’
