Persistence of Morning Thoughts

 

Persistence of Morning Thoughts

 

Morning thoughts yawn from pre-dawn shadows

You know the ones…

 

… thoughts that immerge with the first fingers of sun

thoughts that play in your mind as the morning winds on-

– flying kites on the faintest of breeze…

 

… bullying our other thoughts

dancing in our daydreams

they create pandemonium

tease and taunt

with macabre delight…

 

They linger into afternoon thoughts

the sort

that roll over as slowly

as a sunsplashed whale…

visions slid down scattered sunrays

full-color-scenarios

replay

pause

replay…

 

Clouds gather mid-afternoon, snatching the sun

and still those persistent morning thoughts invade;
