Poetry! A wonderful thing to encounter on a Thursday.
Sadly, the brain is not up to an intelligent comment (the wheel is still spinning, but the hamster has checked out), but I wanted to express my appreciation :)
This poem composed itself in my head on a run when I just seemed to be swimming in monkey-mind. It was nice because it gave my thinking one focus instead of the usual 50 billion.

Hi Merry,
ReplyDeleteThat's OK--the poem is, after all, about non-thinking ;-)
Thanks for your appreciation--always good to know that people are out there reading my little poems.
I like your short but deep verse, Ruth!
ReplyDeleteI used to joke I think I thought therefore I might be :-)
...or not!
ReplyDeleteIt's like the little engine who can't...I think I thought, I think I thought...
Thanks Dr. J!
Love it!
ReplyDeleteAlas, as an excessive ruminator, I spend more time thinking, not being.
I am thinking of not thinking so much but I think that thinking even more about thinking is the most likely result.
Bad, bad brain.
Crabby,
ReplyDeleteThank you, and glad you're back!
Yes, I have the same problem, hence the poem.
