The Fleeting Thought

I sent a thought out into the breeze

and it blew away like dandelion seeds

I could watch it go for a second or two

and then it was gone

now what do i do?

It was a brilliant thought, if I recall

But of course I don't remember at all

I can only briefly and brilliantly surmise

that it was something amazing

for I am quite wise

If only wisdom and memory could meet

If only they sang songs together so sweet

then I'd remember why I started this poem

now where was I going?

I guess I'll forget this one
