Disperse, O Thoughts Within My Head

Disperse, o thoughts within my head
I’ve no time for you
I must leave bed

The sun is up now in the sky
It’s gone to work
And so must I

Disperse, o thoughts within my mind
I’ve better ways
To spend my time

The wind blows snowflakes to and fro
It moves so fast
And I must go

Disperse, o thoughts of useless yearning
There are important skills
I must be learning

The river flows from spring to ocean
It never rests
I stay in motion

Disperse, o thoughts of awe and wonder
I’ve treasure troves
To find and plunder

The stones have stood the test of time
They’ve hold their own
As I’ll hold mine

Disperse, o thoughts within my head
There will be time enough
When I am dead

  1. An adorable line:
    “The sun is up now in the sky

    I think I will view the sun differently in the future.
    It is nice he is lazy in the winter, not bothering to rise fully.
    You writing always brings fun visual thoughts. : )

    1. 🙂 Thank you. The sun is such a strange character. With the right perspective, it is not difficult to empathize and see a bit of ourselves in the course that the sun follows, in the steady way in which it proceeds along the path on which it lies.
