Lost In Thought

I tried to think of a way, To say what I wanted to say. I pondered and thought of lessons they taught, But my mind just went astray. Steeped with words so profound, Still my voice would utter no sound. With all sincerity and a moment of clarity, I decided to write them down. With ink flowing as it should; And doing the best that I could, Thanks to publishing leaders and avid readers, My words were now understood. At last I could shed my fear, Through pride and a salty tear. With the cover embossed at a minimal cost, My book will be published next year.

Thanks John, But you're a little premature. I haven't received any offers yet, but I'm working on it. It was wishful thinking on my part. I was trying to be comical and prophetic at the same time.
