Hmmmmmmm

A Poem by Don Shaw
"

The human mind is one of the last frontiers.Its limits are often self imposed. When free its beautiful.

"
        Hmmmmmmmmm
              
                      Loops and ladders that run through a mind,
                      creating thoughts of a very unique kind.
                      Far out ideas with a conservative restraint,
                      like an artist filled brush of poke a dot paint.
                      A song or invention, all start with a thought,
                      it`s also the place criminals are caught.
                      Life saving medicine or a murderous plot,
                      if it`s not used its subject to rot.
                      Loops and ladders that run through a mind,
                      creating thoughts of a very unique kind.
                      A book, a story, a poem or two,
                      if really thought about, its where we first tied a shoe.
                      Van Gogh`s Starry Night, the Wright brothers flight,
                      it`s the place in our brain that sorts out the sight.
                      Each is original as the print on a hand,
                      some can be followed as a track in the sand.
                      Loops and ladders that run through a mind,
                      creating thoughts of a very unique kind.
