Quick-thinking brain of my long lost youth
left me without a goodbye, how uncouth!

Jeopardy champions in our own way;
you had the answers while I had the say.

Shadows inhabit my brain now at times
shifting from fog to a cold, icy rime.

When it is clear, we are back, you and me;
winning the game for the whole world to see.

This challenge definitely had me lamenting my thinking cap of yesteryear! Trying to portray lament, praise, and solace in dactyl was a nice stretch of the brain.

Recharging the Brain

I took my brain for a test drive–
Revved her up to check her speed,
tested her powerful engine,
then slamming the brakes to a stop,
I shifted into neutral so I could
idle, become steadfast at the helm.

The motor speedway wasn’t far;
It followed the path, memory lane.
Drivewise, she met expectations;
Neutral was fueled by love and
where I recharged by reading.
Driving forward, I feel centered,
enjoying the next journey in my life.

My Theory of Positivity

Damaged treasures,
Broken hearts,
Injured pride.

Images
indelibly stored in brains,

negativities
heavily weighted by physiology,
tipping the scale, if allowed.

Even mathematically,
a negative will take
a positive down.

So stack the odds with
purposeful remembrance
of good times,
of positive feelings, and
of loving family and friends.
