.
My head says one thing,
But I can’t make up my mind.
My brain tells me, ‘No’,
But my mind cannot decide.
.
There is no unity between the three,
They all seem doomed to disagree.
‘Mind over matter’, or so the saying goes,
So, what’s the matter with my mind?
.
‘Out of sight, out of mind’ is another,
So tell me, my brother,
Is it possible to leave my mind behind
And thus be out of my mind?
.
I can lose my mind or lose my head
But if I lost my brain, I would be dead.

So funny, Denise. I saw a T-shirt once that went something like,,,
‘ I’ve gone to find myself.
If I get back, before I do,
Hold me here, until I get there.’
Your poem in a nutshell, Nice post.

I’m thinking I am loosing mine at the moment, as, I can’t for the life of me find anywhere to leave a post on your “Newest” “Black Velvet” entry…Oh well, it was beautiful anyway. Other than makes me think you are cheating on me with that “Elvis Presley’ Guy…But, then who could blame you for that…Heehe
I’m awarding you with a pretty yellow flower (Readers Appreciation Award)..if you would like to come by and read the presentation tomorrow, and Pick…It Up, I would be honored.
Bless You

I think I’ve fixed it. Actually re-posted it. Thanks, Paul. No idea what happened, lol!
I really don’t ‘do’ awards, Paul. I am honoured, but really can’t accept. This is personal and private so please don’t press me. I love you for the compliment, OK. God bless you.
