Think About It

Thinking is meaningless,
When you think about it. 
What is it used for?
People think things 
But never do them. 
So, thinking is obsolete
Like an old game or an old car. 
So, why think?
When you always do something different.


A Past So Present

Still we hold a colour at our watchful eye,
a voice in our attentive ear.
We escape nothing from our mystifying past.

Perhaps we sing a song, old or new,
feel dark or light against a so unsheltered face.
In ears a voice remains.

In an eye resides the face of a loved one.
Colour, voice, songs will never leave one's life,
though one stands before that loved one's grave.

In old East Putnam A very long time ago Mother sang this song to me Oh so soft and low It's just a simple ditty She sang rocking in her chair
my mind still wanders, Back to that old farm again I feel her a hugging me As she did back then Her voice would be a hummin As she'd rock me in her chair
