Punnet

Today's word is "punnet" ... A small container or basket for strawberries.

Reap
Everyday, into your head,
Unheeded, thoughts will steal,
Holding images of what you think's ahead,
Like punnets in a field.

If you just let them float on by,
And give them not a nod,
They'll disappear like smokey sighs,
And release their false facades.

Put then in place a word of hope,
A painting, dance or song,
Those are what will help you cope,
And your happiness prolong.
