i was downstairs watching TV; a poem birthed to mind; i paused the show and ran upstairs; immediately had no idea what my "inspiration" had been. so here to you now is my head chasing tail.
I had a great review all ready to go, but my fingers forgot what my mind said lol. Personally, I can not relate to this at all...smirk. A friend of mine suggested a pocket recorder. A great idea, if I could remember to get one when I'm out.
You are a phenomenal writer, E!

That is wonderful news. A poet right under your nose.
You'll have to drag her to the cafe

she's interested .. i'll give her the address tomorrow if she hasn't already visited.
You just can't imagine the laugh I got reading this! I'm surrounded by paper grocery bags, envelopes and the backs of other poems right now. Envelopes are my fav. They're everywhere ready to be ready for the fleeting moment of an idea. But as you probably know the good ones are hard to forget

it happens to me all the time and increasingly so ... thought I would re-visit these fine words, to remind my self .. and say hello again :)

Perhaps if you ate Avocados... or Pomegranates...
your memory would be sharp as a kid in school.
I wake in the middle of the night with very
little memory and grab a pen and paper and
draft a poem with no meter at all.
However, when you write about Birds...
it seems that you can make up where you
left off... just like the birds do with their song.
I like your poem. It reminds me of the Movie "Entrapment"
withe Sean Connery... a rather old man now...
courting a young girl... you should see the Movie...
very Romantic for oldies that have a lot of energy.
truly, Pat p.s. your poems are always exciting for me
to read.

This is a great depiction of the failing oldster that I've become! I have to keep my notepad by the TV so I can catch those inspirations that come zinging to me (usually when watching live music). If I had to climb stairs, that dip in oxygen would surely erase my hard drive! *wink! wink!* I love this one, very playful & imaginative! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

How did i miss this poem? It's beautifully written! Your hands/writing has about three seconds to pick something out the treasure-chest/inspiration, before it closes on your fingers and whatever you have out of it in that impossible time to choose, you make the best with. That's the path and trials of a poet lol. Great poem, enjoyed the read. All poets can relate.

This is what I heard called a CRAFT moment. That is an acronym for 'can't remmber a f..... thing'. When you get to my age there are two things that go. The first is your memory and I can't remember what the second thing is.
This is wit personified. I love it.

I often walk into a room only to forget why I'm there at all then when I walk back into the oriiginal room I remember!! It's as if the memories leaked out but can be salvaged by the dump-trunk that is the mind. It doesn't always happen. Perhaps you left your own truck's tipper in the up position E! lol
Well the consolation isn't so bad here but that you're kicking yourself in this (with healthy good humour I might add) is very evident.
Tragi-comedy they name (in this instance) is E!
