Trying to be Sherlock
Scanning the scene
Looking for connections
Linking in between
Crystalline deduction
Shimmer in the weave
Searching for the proof now
For all that we believe
Feel like Dr Watson
Following behind
Have your own true brilliance
Still you’re feeling blind
Oh to just be Sherlock
Even for a day
Washing all the doubts
And all the fears away

Nice one Helen, and don’t we just wish.
Yep!! 🙂 🙂 Thanks Michael!!
I still find it weird that 3 episodes counts as a season for this series.
I know…and its such a wonderful series…oh well….
I’ve never seen it. I get fearful of series that appear to vanish after a few episodes.
It is worth watching…real quality, albeit short…
this would be amazing , for a day or two, but I think it might get crazy…which is probably why sherlock is a little crazy 🙂 NICE poem 🙂
Yes, that’s very true, genius and madness are somewhat linked I seems, thanks so much!! 🙂 🙂
I love that series, by the by. You?
Yep, I think it’s wonderful!! 🙂 🙂
Great poem. But I’d never want to be Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock who is one of the most detestable characters for me in literature I have read so far. 🙂
You have a point, but oh for a slice of his mind at times when deduction is needed, LOL!! 🙂 🙂
I like the PBS version of Sherlock and don’t mind Jonny Lee Miller’s take on him with Lucy Liu as his Watson. I am very appreciative of your word choices. I think you did an outstanding job on this poem! I would like to be brilliant and crystalline in my thought processes!
Thanks so much, that is very kind!! 🙂 🙂
Awesome – I love the BBC series – cannot wait until it starts up again. What is even more exciting for me is sharing it with my 16 year old, who like to have deduction moments – like Sherlock. this is something he never did before watching this series. it has now become a game – fun and a great way to sharpen one’s skill of perception.
That’s a wonderful spin off from the series then – it is a great show, I am also looking forward to its return!! ) 🙂
Me too!!!!!!
awww I love Sherlock 🙂 Looking forward to the BBC series to come back on
Me too, thank you!! 🙂 🙂
Love this. Pure helenvalentina.
Thanks Mike!!! 🙂 🙂
I can’t wait for Sherlock to come back I am loving that show
I agree, me too, it’s brilliant! 🙂 🙂
I have not seen it…now, I will have to check it out. You truly can write about everything. Love it!!! You are an incredibly special talent!!
Thanks so much dear Sis, and yes, you must see the BBC series – such an intelligent and clever take on the original story! 🙂 🙂
