Slipped On a Tear Drop

Slipped on a Tear Drop I slipped on a tear drop and landed Upside down in a crystal world Wherever I looked reflections rebound Up was down and down was up Oh what have I gone and got handed It’s worse than fun maze on a pier How can I make it out of here If this was up and that was down its worse I fear For now I am lost in time and space it appears Round in circles like a merry go round here Now I find that in revolving of the mind I cannot see a way, am I blind With eyes that will not see behind The crystal maze that I seem to find It’s holding me here in its inclined Wish there was a way out of this space Why did slip on the tear drop on my face That’s what I must discover so to leave this place What made me cry to have this time and space Discovery will make me free to come to my place 21-6-16

Mary, good use of imagination. When reading your poem, I felt as if I took a walk through "Twilight Zone." The title of your poem is quaint and makes readers curious on what is written. Thank you for sharing. ~ Sonia

hi Wendy, sorry no i was not talking about a stroke, it was about the confusion of the mind in general, though this is the case with a stroke i know as my dad had one many years ago and remember his muddled thoughts after, hope husband is better now good wishes to you , mary xx
