Thinkthinkthink!


from the ABC set Me, you & my world

My brain is buzzing,
my hands are shaking,
my pencil is tapping,
but I just can't think!

Staring at a blank page,
Scribbles down the side,
ehffing clock ticking,
brain is going blind.

Anything, everything,
nothing will fit here,
mind wandering elswhere,
concentrate, it's near!

Panicking, frustrated,
so close to my ideal,
rushing, heart racing,
how stupid do I feel?

Stop trying so hard,
you're trying to think,
go away for a while,
make a nice, hot drink

relax, calm down, resume
Ah! C-C , Con-tin-ues!!
That is the word! Relief!
excitment! Es i fihnite!

I'm so happy that my poem inspired you Kahdai! And this is a wondeful poem - very rhythmical! I just noticed a typo - 'panicing' should be 'panicking' ;)

O thank-you! It also helped me finishing what I was writing at the time! With help of a cup of tea ;) Kx

I have a way to remember that spelling now, it is king of panic!
