One day a thought came stumbling
In, landing within my brain.
I decided I quite liked it,
And tied it down with a chain.
I let it simmer but nothing came through,
Until one day he broke free.
He tugged my strings and scratched the walls,
But there was no door to see.
No exit, no, there was nothing there,
So around and around he flew.
I realized I must nurture the thought,
Take care of it and tame it, too.
I'll have to make sure he's got enough food,
And water to last him the day.
That way my lovely new thought,
Won't try to get away.
