Random Thoughts

Random thoughts

on a busy day

whisk me up

and carry me away

to places I have been

to people I have seen

my mind conjures

as I pace the corridors

to and fro

plots and plans

stored as nucleic acid chains

in the abyss of my mind

then lost

like so many other

random thoughts

that never saw

practical reality

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I have written this poem while I was on-call at the weekend. Strange how many thoughts cross our mind while we work and then never materialize. I have tried my best to get the essence in a poems shape. I hope i have succeeded.

Neatly composed and with a flow from the first line to the last. I wish you write like this more often instead of performing jugglery with words...You know what I mean.
