Far-fetched and Free



     
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:Prov.23:7
image source; public form

You came to me, far-fetched and free
And I did not restrain you
But chose instead, inside my head
To grandly entertain you

…and what began as nothing but
A thought unforced, unbidden
Provoked my will often until
It was no longer hidden

And what began as far-fetched thought
Free and un-reprehended
Became the very thing I did
Because I entertained it

Good or bad, thought is the precursor to attitude and action…
