THERE  IN  A TOY BOX

 
There is a toy box
with wooden blocks
of letters – dozens
and dozens of them.
 
At first, I put together
a few words: house,
tree, meow, help,
God, whisper, hello.
 
Should I go on?
Perhaps a poem
will appear or a
story or an adventure.
 
Who knows what’s
just sitting there 
resting or sleeping
in the toy box of my mind.
