Fleeting Notions

Ever wonder how often our fleeting thoughts Swiftly descend unnoticed into the vast abyss Of grand and worthy notions never realized Because we did not say I never thought of this. Ever wonder how successful you might have been Had you followed through on that revelation Only later to see it seized upon by another And you, given it first, had no consolation. Makes me suspect we do not spend enough time Pondering the possibilities our brain briefly Introduces, realizing opportunities we passed Are proffered and received by someone freely.
