The Thing

The Thing


I do what I do because it's

what I do and I like doing

what I've been doing ...

Lately.


People have asked me, are

you still doing that thing ...

You know?


I say, do you mean the thing I like to do?

So I answer a question with a question, or two.

Why would I stop doing the thing?

You know..

The thing I like to do.

Re: The Thing

I had to read this twice. I think I'll have to read it thrice. Or more. It may go on my office wall of Cool Stuff. I think it will. Off to read it again...entranced by that thing you like to do.

Peace.

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
