I think for free

free thinking and therefore free minding and the like

So do you think deeply

do you dream sweetly

do you talk cheaply

When the seas choppy

when the lakes muddy

when the rivers running

I think for free

you can't change me

there is no fee

to know what I be

mind if I'm free

free if I mind

I am therefore

I think some more

Does the sun wonder

does the moon ponder

do the stars blunder

under galaxies gold

"Does the sun wonder does the moon ponder Do the stars blunder" This was my favorite part of the poem becuase you have a point. These things don't question who or what they are, they just are and they shine regaurdless. They are who they be. I really liked that perspective, because we humans can't seem to be content with that idea. Wonderful poem. Thank you for sharing.

Thought invoking, makes you think, I think. Free thinking is and has been my way of thinking.
I rarely will let you know what Im thinking though. That way I dont make too many blunders.
I love your style !

jesserose, we seldom acknowledge our thoughts, they just sort of happen, there to propel us through the day. The deeper thinkers may describe these thoughts using more words than you or I would, but the thoughts more or less follow a predetermined path, an extension of our life plan. Very nicely penned, jesse; I hope you have a very Happy New Year! take care...dan

[jesserose99]

you too Dan.....thank you for your kind review!

[jesserose99]

oh, and happy new year to you too!!

Classy as always with a deep meaning.....Nicely balanced and the beauty of your writing is the simplicity you put.....One can always understand and enjoy your poetic power without having a look at dictionary.....Great job mate....

[jesserose99]

thank you...I like that...definitely a compliment!

[LapseOfMind]

I left a review and for some reason it didn't post. Anyways, this is awesome! If you didn't write it to music, you could easily sing it to some. I hear a song as I read it, wonderful job!

[jesserose99]

I was kind of thinking that...I will get the geetar out and give it a go. :)

[LapseOfMind]

I wish I could play geetar. Maybe one day

Never stop thinking and wondering about the world, Jesse. I liked the fast moving rhyme of your words. Lydi*

[jesserose99]

Thanks Lydi...always so sweet!!

[Ranbir Singh]

I think that everyone thinks freely, Jesse.
But its just that some speak freely as well. That is too is a good thing until what they say hurts someone. Would you prefer a world where everyone speaks exactly what he/she thinks?

[jesserose99]

oh yes..i totally agree with you Ranbir...I think intent has a lot to do with speaking what one thinks and causing true hurt. If someone intends to hurt they often do...when they are just speaking a difference of thought...well that's what makes the world go round. Lovely thoughts Ranbir...makings of another poem somewhere in there.

[Willard Wells]

Thinking is free, but the outcome if not thought through well will lead to a costly mistake. Thanks

I like to suggest critical thinking.

[jesserose99]

Thank you Willard...probably a good idea...not something I am too familiar with lol but dang good advice nonetheless!!

[alifeacoustic]

This is one of your best. I think with your free thinking you released that something that is repressed when in deep thought, that unleashes wonder and amazement without you understanding why or exactly what or who is in the drivers seat at the time. This happened to me through tiredness when I wrote the abc acrostic and when I looked at what had spilled out after I had a sleep, I couldn't believe that it came so effortlessly. If only we could get to that state of free flowing thought more regularly. I suppose we should just be glad it visits us when it does.
Brilliant.

i like the conflict in this...the sweet, and yet the cheap...the wondering, the pondering and yet the blunder...imperfection of the poet...we have galaxies of thought, but not always good, positive or true...

thank you for this...

[jesserose99]

yeah..i wasn't too sure about that blunder but if there is a good word to blunder it's that one...lol...thank you for your kind review!!

[jacob erin-cilberto]

i liked "blunder" ....

[jesserose99]

alright...ill go with it Jacob...I respect your opinion :)
