My days are spent
chasing thoughts
with pen and paper
to capture them
before they are lost
in the shape shifting
world of my brain.

At Real Toads Words Count With Mama Zen
she challenged us to tell about
our own little world we live in.
But the catch was it must be
in thirty five words or less.

Hiya Susie,
This flows so beautifully.
I'm glad we get to do this once a month from now on.
I love this!!
Super clever to form these words into a cat....the poem itself moves like a cat too!! Well done, Susie!! So glad to see you!!
Susie... my brain's like that too, has a mind of its own. Love:
the shape shifting world of my brain.
I am always chasing thoughts...lovely capture of the writing process...hope you are feeling better ~
So nice to see you out and about in the blogosphere, kiddo. Love your poem. Also love the idea of brain as shape shifter, a much better view than early Alzheimers, which I worry about. I will now just tell my sister my brain is shape-shifting!
I like the shape shifting. And I'm like this, too, when I have an idea, I usually have to get it down on paper fairly soon, or lose it. Nice to see you back!
This is fabulous, Susie. I love the idea of chasing thoughts. I can really relate to it.
Hope you are getting stronger every day.

This is fabulous! I totally relate to this.
You are the cat, the cat is your poem jar, shift again and it's indeed your brain stimulated by the chase to catch before they are lost. (27 words)
This is very good a description of catching an idea of our own. High Energy.
Susie,
This was so clever and well executed!
I love your take on the prompt~ :D
Isn't this true of any worker of words? Nicely done!
Lovely to read your words - in the poem and in the cat! I'm so glad you are feeling better, Susie. Keep your strength up.
i get a fantasy harry potter-ish world from this, lovely! xoxo
The poem! The cat! The poem made into a cat. So good, I relate to your world, and would love to visit! :-)
