To find the answers that I seek
But things are always in my way
And the outlook’s rather bleak
To simplify my very thoughts
I get lost, in this big world
Waving flags to passersby
Not noticing it’s still furled
I know I’m not making any sense
Sad to say, at times I ramble
Wish there was a way to rectify
A life, that’s such a shambles

Yes, I often write first, then look for a pic. If I can’t find an exact, but one’s that close, I may modify the poem to fit it 🙂

When Allie isn’t challenging me, I often do the same. O a few occasions, I find a photo I love and try to write from there.
