Bath Time

[Donald Q.]

I wrote this poem just for fun. Many poems I read deal with very serious stuff. I thought it is a good idea to do something lighter.
The rhyme took on 'a mind of its own' leading the poem in directions I did not plan in advance.
Maybe, that's part of the fun of poetry.  That is DEFINITELY a fun part of poetry. Often good poetry comes out of tangents and meanderings.  I'd say you've uncovered some fun ideas in your meandering, but I think maybe you should rewrite your poem around some of the images from the second half, and maybe either get rid of the introduction, or change it so they are more linked. 

Bath Time
    
Ah, a bath.
Turn on the tap
later a nap  
Then to dine
Maybe have some wine 
let the mind wander,
To places, here, there and yonder.
To momentarily feel
Memories so fine
You wish you could
Go backward in time.
Remembering: To me it feels the poem starts in earnest here. The preceding section is not really needed, and contains some slightly naff rhymes.
Seeing the farmer saying the hay
Watching the mother baking all day
Listening to water splashing onto rocks
Seeing big boats pulling into square docks. .
Gazing at goldsmiths fixing a clock
Staring at stockbrokers counting their stock I think you can just have 'at brokers counting their stock' 
Looking at goods I wish I could pawn
Awed at fog hiding the dawn 
Shocked at stars twinkling so bright
Squinting at summer sunsets sublime
Having a good time all of the time.  Not sure about this ending.
