A Place to Think

a wood-chipped trail

meandering through the woods

releases free spaces in my mind

to fill with creative vibes,

a large boulder blanketed with moss

marooned by the end of a stream

is the perfect place to perch

and let my thoughts

be carried by the current of my brain waves,

the sunbeams

dappling across my lap

brighten the ideas scrawled

in the pages on my journal

waiting to be ignited later.

#VerseLove Day 20- A Space to Look and Think

Prompt – If you are in your “space to look and think,” mentally snap an image of each object you see. Now create a list. 

For me, the ideal place to “look and think” is not a room at all. I get some of my best ideas while walking/hiking on a trail through the trees. Often, I will capture the thoughts in a recording on my phone so they are not forgotten before my steps bring me back home.
