Looking through tomorrow's puddle of words.

Looking through tomorrow's puddle of words.

A Poem by andrew mitchell

Words lie muddled
in puddles
where sentences could jump
but fall forgotten.
Leaving remnants stuck
on a turntable turning
the merry go round
a favourite verse
a broken arm
in a carnival lost in mind
leaving a written trail
of scrabbled letters dusty,
and a fishing line baited
but empty.

being a scrabble and fishing nut...i related so well to the metaphors here....
and my vinyl records still spin on my turntable...as my life spins with a fierce song of aging constantly teaching me who i am.
