of wall-staring -

I do a lot of wall staring. It's therapeutic. Lol! :) Cute haiku here, Timothy. Been busy, but I shall always make time for your awesome poetry. :B Always, Laura

Wall staring is okay ... NOW wall talking ... well that's a different story. Lol. No worries, my friend. As you can see I've been busy myself, so we are both in the same boat!

Thanks so much for taking so much time to read so many of my poems. I am going to turn your juggling idea into a poem. If you remember which poems you read I have responded to all of your comments. Your trip will result in some wonderful poems. You will meet many new friends and they are all in for a treat when they meet a thoughtful young man named Timothy.

by the way, just how old are you anyway. I would have thought all the younger guys were texting experts. I am happy to know you are in MY corner on that one!!!

I'm 18... and don't get me wrong I like to text and I'm pretty fast at it too (it's for sure better than my handwriting!)... I'm just kind of a Grammar Nazi as well, haha... I like to be clear when I'm typing and check for spelling errors...

well, this is not flattering to yourself about your haiku writing and yet, you ended up with a really cool haiku nonetheless. Awesome!

It's quite literally what I was doing as well... I was laying on my bed with my Kindle and spent a good 20 - 40 minutes writing random stuff, while checking on some sites... after awhile I realized I was staring at a wall most of the time and then it clicked!

The obvious becomes profound.

It's funny how my "lack of good things" to write about became in and of itself became something to write about... Lol!
