Thinking
I've been thinking of times we had;
places we went, nice life we lived,
and the joys we shared. Thinking about you.
Been thinking of the home we made;
the house we found, children we have,
and the love we had. Thinking about us.
I've been thinking now that you've gone;
what did I do, where have you been?
I'm alone. Thinking about you and me.

Oh Jim. That way leads to madness my friend. Trust me on this one. It's something I know a lot about. All the same I hate it for ya.
ReplyDeleteNever tried this before, but I figured a prompt like this one I could work with.
Be gentle, it's my first time.
What a great prompt! Thanks Jim.
ReplyDeleteI just went over to your blog Jim, I don't see this work there. SO sad to read...
ReplyDeleteA great prompt with a lot of scope for interpretation..thank you! But its so sad if it was inspired by the loss...
ReplyDeleteDeep sadness there but such beautiful ideas!
ReplyDeleteOh Jim--

ReplyDeleteIt's about thinking somewhat,
ReplyDeleteeternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Wonderful contemplation of the intricate layers of lives joined and separated. The sense of loneliness is palpable.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the prompt. It has inspired some beautiful works.

ReplyDeleteSandy,
ReplyDeleteMr. Linky has moved to a new server and you have to get a ticket and request that they move your blog to a new server for the code to work ... after that you have to change the "www" part of your code to "www2". Of course it doesn't work unless they add your blog to their new server.
I have gotten a little tired of Mr. Linky, but have no other option, but I am looking. If you find one let me know please.
ah, that's what's going on with Mr. Linky.
ReplyDeleteI see.
I think.
