IDEAS



Ideas can come at any time
Day or night, unexpectedly
As if there is a chemistry
An action to reach the full prime

Not close to the mind yesterday
Now it's blooming like a flower
Collective thoughts, gems by the hour
Success, failure, either way

In this life, it's a choice to try
Because ideas can bring new things
That bring nice flights without wings
Why not give it a chance and try?

Quality time where choices wait
Doors open smoothly when it's right
Whether ideas come day or night
Follow them, it's never too late

My ideas actually 'bombard me.' Problem is few are any good at all. Pity, that.

Encouraging words Heidi! For me, of late, I have been having fun making jewelry, and I am trying different styles, the ideas seem endless. Sometimes, I have too many ideas. I had eye surgery last summer, and it is good to be able to see so much better. I'd tried doing this a bit over a year ago and it was almost impossible. I thought it was too late, but have a new lease on life with my eyesight so much better. I'm having a lot of fun :) I love your uplifting and encouraging poem <3
