The thinkers ….!

The thinkers ….!

.

They were alone & in love,

He said “Why do you appear so lost”

She said “I am Thinking”

He  “What are you thinking”

She “I am thinking about what you may be thinking”

“But I think you look very lovely when you are not thinking,

Then why do you have to at all think”

“Yes,  most of the time I am not thinking.

I am really happy when I am not thinking

& often enjoy talking without thinking,

But later I regret when I think about what I was talking.

And often land into trouble for having talked without thinking”

“I am different my thinking and talking go on simultaneously.”

“But I think both of us do a lot of unnecessary thinking”

“Why do you think so and can you tell me why thinking is wrong”

“I actually enjoy a lot, thinking & talking about thinking”

So like this they went on thinking & talking, mostly about thinking,

And later on realized they did nothing whole evening,

except thinking and talking about thinking,

without thinking about the time that was passing & had passed.

Finally said she “I think we should now be going”

He responded “You are right, I think.”

It is indeed great & a happiness to see your comment at p4poetry after such a long lapse, for we were missing you presence, your poems and your comments at p4poetry very much indeed.
I have already prayed to The Goddess of Poetry to bless you such that you do get inspired to get and devote more time for your passion for poetry, without affecting your important occupation but in the process to remain more effective there too.
Now about your comment on the poem ” The Thinkers….!”, do you really think so?. I think I made a good attempt at it. Nevertheless I will definitely think about why you may be thinking so and improvement, so that next time you think differently about my poems . I hope you will support this thinking of mine. After all, thinking is highly subjective, don’t you think ?.

A nice meaningful poem on true thinking,
meaningless thinking and doing nothing by
thinking unnecessarily for so long,Vishvji.
