Why do I sit and wonder
Why do I sit and stare
All the things I ponder
Are they really there
Or just imagination
No substance in there form
Do they need investigation
Before they can be born
I never seem to understand
Why I cannot move
Why I cannot take in hand
My ever changing mood
Nothing ever comes about
If nothing’s ever started
If problems are not thought about
They never will get sorted
But to ponder evermore
The problems in my mind
It seems that I am looking for
Answers I won’t find
If there’s no solution
To a problem I am viewing
I’ll not find conclusion
So there is no point ensuing
Forget the problem for the time
Keep it out of sight
One day I will get a sign
And I will see the light
The solution will be there
And without my pondering
I will be aware
And no longer will be wondering
Once a problem’s solved
I won’t be involved
I will not be caught
In hazy, crazy thought
J Lloyd
