Idyll Thoughts

Where do idyll thoughts come from,
                                
can they be a daydream.
                                                
Do these idyll thoughts come from life,
                            
where we are in that moment in time.
                            
As a child,
                                                                    
we think of playing or TV.
                                              
As a teenager,
                                                              
we think of the date on Saturday night.
                          
As a mom,
                                                                    
we think about our child.
                                                
In the doctors office,
                                                      
we think about the test results.
                                      
Many idyll thoughts from day to day,
                              
many from year to year.
                                                
Where do these idyll thoughts come from,
                      
my mind that is not at rest.
                                            
Mind be at rest,
                                                            
mind give me peace.
                                                      
Idyll thoughts go away,
                                                  
today I do not want to play.

Quite true, as it sometimes seems one mind is connected to a party line . . . .
