Varieties of Thoughts

The mind is a library of thoughts. With our minds, we can think of a variety of things and ideas. With our thoughts, we can reflect on situations, things, and moments of our lives. Here is what I was thinking about.

I was sleeping under a tree,

I thought the forest was free,

I believed that my mind was evergreen,

My eyes were blinking in the wind.

I was walking under the sea,

I thought the ocean was free,

I believed that water was calmer as ice in the midday sun.

The sea was blinking in the wind.

I was flying in the sky,

I thought the horizon was free,

I believed that the sky was closer to the heavens,

The clouds were blinking in the wind.

I saw a colourful flower in the wild,

I thought it was a rose,

I believed the pretty red was for me,

The wild had varieties of its kind.

I was reading a story,

I thought it was the only history,

I believed the tale was mine,

The library had many of its kind.

I had to plant my garden and write a story.

Reasons flared up beyond a boundary,

I thought I was lonely and alone,

Singing birds were staunchly a companion.
