The Mind

Rules of mischief.

Those blooming thoughts

My mind enjoys

In summer’s heat

And city’s noise,

|

Those reckless thoughts

Are my mind’s gamble

They cause mischief

And scatter pebbles,

|

Those risky games

That mind employs

Keep me awake

With twist and ploy,

|

Those nifty tricks

My mind designs

Sometimes bring joy

Pain other times,

|

Thoughts it emits

Pop loud and sudden

Abundant cracks

On aged pavement,

|

Awake, asleep

In deep or shallow

Mind’s mermaids sing

And stir life’s harbour.
