Sometimes I like to sit and think
By myself
Wondering
Unraveling my string of thoughts that occurred during the day
Bitter freezing ideas
Sweet flowery smelling dreams
Salty dry plans
Fiery fierce opinions
Mysterious unknown visions
It’s always fun to see what goes on in there
Some days it’s a boundless forest of foliage and dark corners,
It’s a beach with cool turquoise waves lapping the dry sand.
It’s a giant maze-like mansion filled with mystifying rooms.
I don’t care if it’s unusual,
I like to think of myself as creative.

The author's comments:
This is a poem I wrote in my Creative Writing class. I was inspired by the things I normally think about on a daily basis.

Laugh, and the world laughs with you;<br /> Weep, and you weep alone.<br /> For the sad old earth must borrow it&#039;s mirth,<br /> But has trouble enough of its own.
