My Thought for the Day

A thought came today.
It was a catchy few lines
risen in my mind. And I
believed it would make

the perfect ending for
the poem I hoped to
write. But what then of
the beginning? A new

day does not begin at
sunset, not unless you
are used to working the
night-shift. What then?

Hitch your horse to the
ass-end of the wagon
and you could be lead
in the wrong direction.

Perhaps the end then is
actually a new beginning.
Sometimes I get all twisted
and tangled up in semantics.

A though came today. And
I suppose I’ll just have to
wait and see where it fits
most appropriately. Could

be at the beginning or
perhaps the end. Not in
the middle, though. I’m
fairly sure that just won’t

work for me. That means
I would then need both a
suitable beginning and an
appropriate end. And that,

my friends, turns out to be a
greater degree of difficulty than
I had bargained for originally.
Stay tuned; we’ll see.
