Word Tides
Words drift in and out
like flotsam on the tide
Tangling occasionally,
to take on substance and form
But just as quickly
washing back out to sea
Leaving the writer bemused
and waiting for the returning tide

Good work. How often have we all watched good ideas wash away unrecorded.
Good analogy for writing poetry. Got to grab hold of those thoughts before they drift away.
