Swift Spark of Creativity
synapse spark
starts the clock
on idea incubation
action must be swift
harnessing thoughts
before their dissipation
be quick to fertilize
every creative nugget
the key is cultivation
if germination falters
then graciously set it free
allowing it to return someday
for further consideration

Fun wordplay and rhyme scheme, Ron. And true!
Well done Ron! I like your metaphor of miscarried thoughts being aborted if not captured swiftly!
very cute, Ron
👏

Somehow this prompt called for rhymes and regularity, and you’ve done this and also woven some alliteration in nicely!
Capturing your thoughts is the only way for ideas to grow…
