    Things

    I am distracted by things,
    like white fluffy clouds in a blue sky,
    Or by the way a bird sings,
    I am amazed by the simplicity of things,
    Like chimes fastened by strings,
    By the smell of a rose and how it’s beauty stings,
    I believe in many things,
    Each man as an equal and not one to be a king,
    A child smiling on a swing,
    And watching the joy and happiness it brings
    I am opened minded but very private about things,
    like my relationships, fleeting wedding rings
    the puppet strings,
    or how the balance of love swings
    I am conscious of many things...

    Isn't life wonderful! And the beauty of life can be very distracting!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
