Rambling thoughts
wandering
in the foggy wilderness
of misplaced Time
and mistaken Space
To gather them from the haze
before I am unmasked
and revealed
to be a forgetful menace
is a Herculean task.
Somewhere
Overgrown with brambles
the rambling trail that went nowhere,
took me somewhere…
Short and sweet
Rambling is a gamble
And time is of essence
To hold your audience
Keep your speech concise

That was good to read.
For rambling, what better place these days than cyber space!
It was in cyber space that I chanced upon your blog during an aimless ramble on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Keep writing.

@G Vishwanath,
Oh yes, I meant I had been chatting to Bob. But of course I have spoken to him on phone too 🙂
And that was really amazing, a very good reproduction of your voice and thank you for the message. But I am afraid when it comes to comments, I’d prefer to write them out myself, though I don’t mind people sending them to me as voice comments. Perhaps there are others like you who might prefer to ‘speak out’ their comments. Yes, its a lot easier. 🙂
How about….Time being of essence
To ramble is a gamble
Only the concise
Shall have the audience’s presence.
I know I know…I shouldn’t write LOL
