I'm feeling better now, Lady Divine. Thank you very much.
Insomnia
Isn't it annoying when you're tired so go to bed
But thoughts just won't stop swimming round in your head?
The rest of your body can be achy and tired out.
Your eyes can want to close but your head just wants to shout.
Your mind is racing at 100 miles per hour.
Ideas just come raining down in a heavy shower.
By the time you finally get to sleep it's time to get up.
Then you need bucketloads of coffee to drink by the cup.
Overwhelmed
Do you ever feel overwhelmed
When people are screaming?
Or when there are so many thoughts in your head
When you should be dreaming?
Or when your mind is racing at 100 mile per hour
& you can't record your thoughts quick enough
& you need to be constantly doing things
or reading something heavy & it's tough?
You're blinded by the light
& it's just way too bright.

Frustrating when it happens. Very well expressed Lady Anne 🤍

It is indeed. Thank you very much, Lady Divine. (I just had to write about it. I've just been feeling overwhelmed the last few days by all the thoughts & ideas running around in my head. Do you ever get the feeling that if you don't get some of your thoughts & ideas out your head will explode? Sometimes it's information too.)

Yes, we need to ground ourselves. Overthinking happens especially when we’re ready to fall asleep.
Thank you so much for your wonderful contributions Lady Anne, thank you for sharing your talents 🙏🏼🤍🕊️

Tell me about it.
You're welcome, Lady Divine.
Fascination over difficult things (Inspired by Fascination over what's difficult by W.B. Yeats)
Why is there such a fascination over difficult things?
Why do we prefer to do something to challenge us rather than something that to us sings?
Or just the simple pleasures life brings?
Why do we prefer reading tomes?
Than enjoying the comforts of homes?
Why is it harder to get something to chew on the more intelligent we get?
Why is it harder goals are more likely than easier ones to be met?
Why do we all like things that make us think?
Why do we like something in which our teeth can sink?
Why do we often find hard things easy & easy things hard?
Why do we do hard things perfectly but our easy tasks are marred?
After so long we find it hard to find the challenges we need to keep us going.
We want to learn but have to find something harder to keep us growing.
& find something useful & interesting to be knowing.
Either that or we find things that are way too hard like Greek.
Sometimes we just enjoy being a bit of a Geek.
Sometimes it's nice to give ourselves a bit of a break.
However, that's not always a piece of cake.
Our heads are always hungry for more.
Sometimes more information than they can store.
Mindfulness, relaxation & spontaneity are sometimes good things.
If our heads will let us this can allow us to appreciate the pleasures life brings.
If we don't do enough our heads switch off & we make careless errors, we turn into zombies by being on auto-pilot all the time.
Improvisation can be a good thing when we don't accidentally do something inconsiderate which can be such a societal crime.
Horses in fields
The sky was azure like aquamarine
The sun was a golden ball
It's rays were glaring bright
& it was burning us all
There were beautiful horses in fields
They were playing & running free.
I came to feed & caress them
& they were nuzzling me.
Wonderful new additions Lady Anne, captured my imagination.

Overwhelmed
Do you ever feel overwhelmed
When people are screaming?
Or when there are so many thoughts in your head
When you should be dreaming?
Or when your mind is racing at 100 mile per hour
& you can't record your thoughts quick enough
& you need to be constantly doing things
or reading something heavy & it's tough?
You're blinded by the light
& it's just way too bright.
This one for me. I fight with anxiety. 😥 sleep like a baby
My head races & races. ThanQ for this.
