Listen to poem:
Written: August 29, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ In a world of normal minds, they say, As thoughts are bound in an adducible way, A crucial realm of wisdom, often quoted, Resides in books, yet remains unnoted. What matters to those commonsensical souls? Who dread leaving their safe zones of control, Who adheres to the standard despite harm, A parody of crucial concepts is not a psalm. Where imagination thrives, Ordinary minds bear daring dives, There lies the beauty of being unconfined, To the limits of what's deemed normal, defined. For in the realm of crucial views to foresee, There is none here that is subject to a decree, No restrictions on what can be said or done, No evaluation; no need to comply or stun. Here, vital ideas turn into comedy, A playful dance of ideas and absurdity, Where seriousness waxes a giggling matter, And the mundane transforms into laughter. So let us stray from the path well-trodden, Embrace the unconventional and broaden Our horizons beyond the ordinary, In the wit of key views, clarity is a corollary.

A beautiful ending to a wise and moving write. Your rhymes as always are so captivating and so creative. And the flow of your words so seamless. In our imaginary realms do we feel or find ourselves unconfined, in a playful dance of ideas and more. Such a brilliant and meaningful write, i always find it enjoyable to read your well crafted poems. Loved this

A good sense of humor to my mind is a prerequisite for a happy heart. To be unconventional and imaginative are truly wonderful traits, but we must be mindful not to offend, as freedom of speech can be carried to far at times. When people tell me I am weird, I say "thank you" Loved your poem SP A favorite for me . I hope it makes POTD.
