How Thoughts Change

How Thoughts Change

A Poem by Aehr

Cafes remind me of coffee
Coffee reminds me of books
Books remind me of pirates
Pirates remind me of crooks

Music reminds me of feelings
Feelings remind me of hearts
Hearts remind me of love
And first-date lemon tarts

Painting reminds me of colors
Colors remind me of dreams
Dreams remind me of reality
And practicality, so it seems

Life reminds me of crying
Crying reminds me of tears
And funnily on thinking further,
Tears remind me of fears

Its strange how thoughts change
It's such a crazy transition
Thinking from one thing to another
It all creates confusion

It's so weird how we change our thoughts so fast. Thinking about one thing leads to thinking about another, and thinking further, we land on a totally different topic. Strange, isn't it?

I like the way you use the words. Words can mean many things. Can change with age and experience. I enjoyed the complete poem. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Yeah, the transition indeed is weird. The other day when our Zoology teacher drew a diagram of the earthworm's reproductive system, I went, "That looks like Hermes' caduceus!"

Anyway, good work! :)

thoughts may either become a way of life or they lose their lives. that is life!

I like this. It had such a rhyming flow I could almost tilt my head side to side as a read it! Also, thoughts are so fast, I often jump topic too quickly, to the point where I have to go back and talk about the first thing I was talking about to someone. haha! its so easily to get off track when thoughts move through the mind so quickly.
