Ideas grow <br />in the mind. <br />Dipping, <br />swimming <br />and wallowing <br />like an ocean's surf. Keep one <br />if it curtsies <br />or is polite. <br />But if like the tide, <br />it comes a'swishing <br />it's a thought! <br />Let it in. It may be <br />colored <br />only in black. <br />But vision distills it <br />and meaning <br />creeps in <br />and color <br />will win. <br />Begin! Thus comes <br />a reflection, <br />a purpose, <br />a treasure <br />to mirror <br />and keep.<br /><br />Beverly Watkins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-the-mind/
