Ode to the Lost Notion

I had such plans
For this day
But when I woke
They went away

I wrack my brains
to recall
what thought remained
Both large and small

But that effort
Was in vain
Of those notions
No trace remain

Such is my life
This I fear
To lose ideas
That I hold dear

(Like those notions were really great
If they were they'd not abate
They'd have stayed till they were needed
So without them I'm not defeated)



More poetry. I'm starting to wonder if I'm in the right field...

This wasn't the intended output for today, but, as the poem suggests, what I wanted to do wasn't with me just yet. Better to think the grapes were sour than they were ambrosia...

I've said it many times before, but poetry just shoots right past me without slowing down (once it threw a styrofoam cup at me, though).
