My Minds Eye: Overlooked & Misunderstood
I’m overlooked or misunderstood by those who always surround me.
My Minds Eye could be about anything. Literally. The point of reading the stories was to discover who was telling the story. It was way to develop a talent for humanizing the most common objects around us. It’s 100% free to read and comment on, so let your perspectives be heard.

A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

Ready??
I never thought myself greedy for collecting what no one else wanted. Disregarded or underestimated things are what I live to harbor. After a long day of being tugged and pushed brutally, I like to retire to me secluded space and sleep in the bounty of my wealth.
But when morning rises, I have no doubt some curious or frustrated persons will come seeking my wisdom. They will consult with me about lost treasures and forgotten valuables, many of which I hoard jealously. But diligent visits to my stores will often give a reward.
I’m overlooked or misunderstood by those who always surround me. I have no adornments or embellishments of beauty and receive no daily polish. But I’m often in use of those who forget me. Where would they be if I were gone?
What work would they have to do!
I squeak under the weight of my heavy load and wait for someone to come. Many pass by my store of surprises but no one stops to look. Oh well, I think. I needn’t share with those who don’t care to find what they have lost.
WHO AM I?
WAIT! What's the ANSWER?!?
Okay, here's how this works. Locked in my author vault is both the answer and the author. All you have to do is make your guesses in the comments. That is where I’ll reveal the answer…
Want to help keep me in basic office supplies?
I’m always running out of basic supplies……if you’re willing & able, you can click on my list of what I use and buy a product …..OR…. you can buy me a coffee and I’ll get what I need when I need it. THANKS!
Dad, do other people even have these though? How can they guess if it’s a Buckley thing to own? And I don’t think there is a technical name for it…is there?😅
