I just had a thought

At the back of my mind

By an idea I was nursing

In crept in behind

The thought was so silent

It almost got missed

But just in the corner

It stopped to be kissed

The idea had noticed

A new friend about

And decided to welcome

And left it no doubt

Here was a place

That cherished all notions

There was safety about

For thoughts and emotions

So thinking it’d stay

This thought settled in

And started to nest

It’s life could begin

My mind is so full

Of ideas and such

There’s really no room

For the personal touch
