Thomas Albritton returns to The Margin with two thoughtful and tranquilizing poems, Mind of Mine and Care….
Mind of Mine
This mind of mine is losing its time
scattered are my thoughts
and the memories do come and go
not staying in the lockers for store.
The words do fail this mind of mine
sometimes here and sometimes gone
lost in time from this mind of mine.
Reaching into thin air and nothing is there
this is what it feels like for this mind mine.
Frustration sets in
and in time it will disappear
sometimes near and sometimes far
but these words do reappear.
This mind of mine is certainly losing its time
I do not fear this mind of mine
for I know the memories it does hold
precious are they so locked away
in this mind of mine….
Care
The air is filled with those tantalizing smells from the soft rain that fell.
With the droplets of life so soft upon the ground and the light that darts all around.
Life eternal with this fall and her rays.
Mother Nature has shown her care.
