That's Why I Love Showers

thoughts afloat, words sailing
the minute I step into a warm shower
eyes drip vision, mind abuzz stories
world suddenly clearer than water

no distraction to sway, no tricks to play
no soul calling my name that time
moments of solitude and introspection
to conjure and imagine lines that rhyme

times I step in with rocks in head and heart
emerge anew light as a dove’s feather
puzzles that keep me up all night
find lucid answers in clouds of vapor.

Ideas for poems come to me in the shower too. I leave a note pad on back of the commode for that reason. I enjoyed your poem Sara. Congratulations on your placement! ; )
