Joseph May Poet Quatrain

Ideas Spring Forth

I wander through its corridors
 And up its winding stairs
 I enter cobwebbed rooms
 And find the yesteryears

 I wander through its seasons
 And find my autumn there
 The leaves are falling slowly
 Yet there is no time to spare

 I wander through its canyon
 And find a river running deep
 There is no time to linger
 The subconscious never sleeps

 I wander through its pathways
 A never ending maze
 Ideas seem to spring forth
 Imagination has its ways!

I love the way you phrase each line in your discovery with the ability to include the reader in their own yesteryears. This is a Fave for me Joseph. Thank you.
